Having a baby? Use this one weird trick!

This only works if you go to the green countries:

Haha, that's not how it works outside the US.

Doesn't work in most countries. Being stateless isn't very fun.

That isn’t the plan you think it is. The US is an outlier in terms of granting birthright citizenship. Most countries - and particularly, most developed countries - do not do this.

Well your kid won't get citizenship, but you'll be able to afford to birth them.

Is birth citizenship that common? Won't work here in Germany for example...

No need to go overseas, almost all countries with birthright citizenship are in the Americas.

Don't choose Germany, though, we (and a lot of nations, actually) still for some reason have citizenship-by-blood/heritage laws more or less straight out of the 19th century, not citizenship-by-birthplace laws.

The better term might be "abroad", rather than "overseas". Because Jus Soli is a concept that exists mostly in the Americas. So you'd better not cross over the Atlantic or Pacific sea for this plan.

Imagine US citizens flying abroad to have anchor babies.

Also airlines won't let a pregnant woman travel at that point

It's a good era in which to not have children. Expect a lot of forsaken children.

Also expect some coerced birthing programs such as the Leibensborn program (which was also an excuse to recruit young women as sex slaves for the Schutzstaffel ) and the offspring were supported by the state and raised by the single mothers.

This is the program that inspired the Handmaid program in Margaret Atwood's Gilead, in A Handmaid's Tale

And J. D. Vance is super thirsty for it, as is countless other Freedom caucus and MAGA Republican officials.

ETA That said, it might be a good time to get sterilized and commit to not having kids. (That doesn't mean you won't have chances to parent)

We don't recognize birthright citizenship. You'll have to fill in the paperwork like everyone else.

Ireland: Proof of residency for 3 out of the last 4 years before the child gets an Irish passport. It's enough to present utility bills or paychecks for that period. I did it, and my kids only have Irish passports (even though they'd be entitled to both) until they are old enough to make their own decision in this matter. Or Trump decides to expand his golf course to the entire island.

Do not do this. American passports are the easiest to exchange for another countries citizenship, but one of the hardest to get.

Hah! Good luck finding one

Typical inaccurate American meme, fucking do better. Jesus fucking Christ.

Not in Italy

Best we can do is free health care

They would have to have birth right citizenship for that to work.

Here`s the fun part.. you dont need an anker baby to come live in the EU. I think alot of countries here would welcome Americans who had enough of Trump
