Trump has proposed ending birthright citizenship. Okay...more nations haven't got that policy than do have that policy. So it's not as though it couldn't be implemented. But how far do we want to go with this?
- 14th Amendment
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

I can't think of a single country that has that policy. Can you link to one that does?
Birthright citizenship? Canada.
Are they the only ones? And I see that they didn't have it till 1977.
I cannot say what their citizenship policy was prior to 1977. What information have you showing that Canada's policy differed prior to 1977?
