Do I have this right?
Answer:
yes...
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.
when that child become of age to vote, that person will have the right to vote. When that person becomes employed with a reputable employer, that person and his employer will be taxed. The moment that child buys an item from a reputable merchant that child become a tax-payer..your statement is accurate.
well, they'll be citizens. Whether they vote and pay taxes who could say?
First part yes.
Second part - depends.
Yes, this is true.
Yeah. Unless they are a day laborer and get paid in cash. But what are their parents going to be doing for the next 18 years? Working for cash, not paying taxes and mooching off of our health care system.
Yes, but I think they need too change that law to children born to American Citizen.
That child is a citizen cause they was born here! They can vote and do whatever they want!
Very good for you..Now go pay your taxes like a good little citzen.
Yes.
Yep.
Potentially. But the parents are still in this country NOT paying taxes. We have 2 people not paying taxes and 1 person who might pay taxes 18-20yrs from now. Not a good situation.
Yes a child born in the US is a citizen, he/she will have voting rights as for the paying of taxes citizenship does not guarantee someone will fulfill their civic duty.
Yes that is correct.
Not necessarily.
Yes. They will have the right to vote if they want to, and they will be subject to taxes like any other legal citizen.
Yes a US citizen. Possibly a tax paying voter.
Parents may also be tax payers contrary to other postings, as many people have ITINs and pay taxes (including soc. sec. that will never benefit them) even though they are undocumented.
That child is a citizen, whether or not they would do their civic duty is anyone's guess. They need to change this law ASAP! It encourages people to come here and do this and then it's that more difficult to send them back to where they come from. It's rewarding the parents in the long run for breaking the law and that is not right. I don't care where people come from they need to come here legally or go home!
Well, if you consider 18-20 years a "few" then maybe. Of course in the mean time you have to pay for their birth, their education, their medical needs and in some cases their babies.
It's a never ending drain upon the economy.
That's exactly right...It's up to the parents (who gain entry by being the parents of a US citizen) to raise the child to enjoy American traditions...But, as you can see, that's not happening. We're becoming Mexico Norte; Mexico North.
A place where they can live like they do in Mexico and send money back to their families back 'home'.
For all the people who think that ilegal people do not pay taxes, please call IRS.. belive or not uncle Sam.. gives "Ilegal people" an ITIN Number to pay taxes... He doesn't care if the people is legal or ilegal. he say "PAY PAY". All people who live in US PAY TAXES!!!.. please this is America and 2007, I can't believe there are a lot ignoran "American People"...
