Refusing to give citizenship to residents isn't a point in the country's favor.
If you want to get historical, the US is north of 99% migrants. But setting aside the politics of generational migration, we also have birthright citizenship and marital citizenship laws that naturalize people at a far more consistent rate. And we have an enormous territory, such that you can move from New York to California or Puerto Rico to Alaska and still enjoy citizenship.
What do you call a huge influx of East Coasters into Texas, Colorado, and Arizona if not migration?
Let me know when the majority of the Swiss population is French, and then you can brag about your diversity.
