CMV: Birthright citizenship is the superior method of operating

First. I'm not American and I have no idea what the US supreme court is doing right now. The US is also not what's motivating me to post this; the timing is just a coincidence.

I know the first thing people are going to bring up is the phenomenon of people coming to a country with birthright citizenship, having their child, and that being a problem for residential infrastructure, job markets and integration of the newcomers. I disagree for several reasons.

First, the timing of an infant's birth is frustratingly unpredictable. Just go ask any OBGYN what time of day they last got called in to deliver a baby.

Second, I just see this as trying to cover your countries inability to patrol its borders. Maybe a better expenditure of time and resources would be on efficient border patrol and handling of those who manage to get in illegally.

Third. Why do people assume that just because a child gets birthright citizenship, the parents do as well? Just institute a carve out and give the parents a different deal than the infant.

Fourth. Why exactly is the infant not being given citizenship? They didn't break the law by being born. They had absolutely no say in any of this and I don't see how it's even remotely moral to condemn the child for what the parents did.

Fifth. How exactly is the policing of this going to go? Any woman who look a bit large is banned from the country? It's not like all babies are born in the 9th month of pregnancy. Are all pregnant women from month 5-9 just banned from entering?

Sixth. How exactly is it defensible or preferable that a child who might be born and raised in country X is not a citizen of that country? Again, why is the child bearing some the of the blame for the parents actions?

All the arguments against birthright citizenship just read like spite and ignorance. The only exception to this is infrastructure not being able to keep up with a big increase in people, which is fair enough.

If there are problems with immigrants and refugees then work to figure out why. Don't just stamp and shout and whine while putting up barriers. Work smarter.
