It’s clear they’re more worried about it not being a disaster and people seeing the most populated city in the country thriving which would be the deathknell for their party and the rich being idolized and catered to.
So much of the financial markets are based there that there is likely fear that NYC imploding would have collateral damage to the US. Sometimes it seems that it would be worth the risk.
When the government sets about denaturalizing folks convicted of petty crimes, I’ll become concerned.
Pretty sure there has to be some type of criminal behavior involved.
The audacity of the implied threat is mind boggling.
Once you've accepted the principle that American citizenship is always tenuous and can be revoked, then there's no limiting principle that will restrict it those people. If you want to denaturalize people committed of heinous crimes, why would you be concerned about denaturalizing people convicted of petty crimes? What about people who just stir up trouble but don't break the law?
Obama gave way to this with his expansion on the McCarthyism bullshit.
I understand where you’re coming from, but reject the proposition that citizenship for naturalized Americans is, or will become “tenuous”.
First, I didn’t say or imply that I want people convicted of “heinous crimes” denaturalized.
Of course not.
As it should be.
Not true.
I agree. The bar for denaturalization should remain very high.
Remember when you people used to pretend to be "all for legal immigration?"
I know you folks have gotten used to the executive branch playing fast and loose with the rules, but you’ll get a crash course in what the law requires. If you want to change the law then tell your comrades in Congress to put pen to paper.
