the problem isnt anchor babies.
the problem is
1. Businesses find the benifit of working illegal aliens better than the risk of being caught. (this needs to change)
2. Politicians use immagration law as a ploy to get votes. (they vote to limit the number of legal immagrants when they should be raising those numbers to match the actual need)
3. our boarders are protected just enough to still make it easy for illegal aliens to get here but tuff enough that they require very bad men to help them. (we need to seal the souther boarder, then look at the northern one)
we need RATIONAL policy that first CONTROLLS ACCESS, then and only then, we need to scientifically identify the acutal number of LEGAL IMMAGRANTS needed and allow a simple process to bring them in.

The rational behind the amendment is to take away a big factor in them coming here - the anchor babies. I believe that is the biggest factor for them.
We have to whittle away at every incentive, but you are right - a whole lot more to the issue.
Personally, here, I see Mexican men fathering children on both sides of the border and it gripes me to no end. I guess, in a way, it is a little satisfaction to me that they can't make the babies legal - no matter how many they want to father.
