Dont think for one second that the companies that build outside of the united states using cheap labor dont charge what it would cost to build here in the US! There using cheap labor to increase there profits! They save a whole lot of money by not only paying cheap hourly pay but by not paying workmans comp and health insurance!
Manufacturers charge what that local economy will support!

Born here but grandparents....
Came here via Ellis Island from Sicily. Back then, you knew that once you got here it was going to be quite an ordeal to stay here.
They had to go thru med checks, etc etc etc etc. After all was said and done they were American citizens. My Grandfather was a tailor and they also owned several small stores. Illegal aliens here now and the ones on the way might have their place as well, however they are bringing in diseases that we have eradicated long ago and exhausting our resources. Something needs to be done and fast.

There is no immigration problem... immigration is a great thing. There is an illegal alien problem that is a serious threat to all Americans.

Okay, here is a question for you fine folks on this site.....
What about the person who had both parents born and raised in America, then they decided to move to another country. While in the other country they decide to have a child, then decide to move back to the USA once that child is born. Said child is around the age of two or so, what happens to that child and what nationality is it?

Adding Solman's correct answer:
Dual citizenship...my wife was born in England as her Dad was in the Navy stationed there. She has both US and English citizenship

I was wondering if that would pop up around here or not. I'm in the same boat as her, but I have the US and Canada citizenship.

Boy am I confused!
I thought this thread was about Led Zepplin's Immigrant Song. That would be more fun to discuss!
