Born in the U.S.A.: Birth tourists get instant U.S. citizenship for their newborns.

A curious global industry has emerged that caters to wealthy foreign women willing to spend tens of thousands of dollars to give birth in the United States and get instant U.S. citizenship for their babies. The hefty price is worth it, according to these women, because it paves the way for easy access to American public schools, universities and jobs as the children get older and green cards for the whole family once the child turns 21.

The women stay at controversial birth tourism centers, often hidden in suburbia. The centers have riled neighbors and ignited outrage on Capitol Hill.

“They are gaming the system…and people should be put in jail,â€

It sounds like "Katie" is enjoying the executive-level rental income, besides.

I doubt that any of these families have the interests of the good ol' USA foremost in their minds. And those kids that grow up with wealthy parents and then are estimated to produce an economic benefit, eventually, to the US: How many of them are going to be so overindulged and demanding, and then just file bankruptcy on their creditors later?

There have been various articles here about women from China coming here to have their babies.

One example is:
