Changes to Naturalization Laws

Liberty Election Reform & Political Integrity

The term for becoming a naturalized citizen of the US is 5 years. Did you know that that period was chosen in 1798 and reaffirmed in 1802? Do you think that the economic and political conditions of 1798-1802 are extant today? The answer to the latter question must be a resounding “No!” from any sentient, intelligent, and honest person.

When the nation was being formed from wilderness, the nation needed settlers to populate the western expansion of the nation. I maintain that the period of 5 years for naturalization (only 60 months , ~1800 days) because of that need. That need continued until late in the 19th Century, but it does not exist today.

It is past time to reconsider and change the laws wrt naturalization for citizenship. I propose that the period be changed from 5 years to 15 years. Only after 15 years and proof of assimilation into the US social, economic, and political culture should anyone be considered for citizenship. That should be in additon to any other requirements such as those requiring that applicants forswear allegiance to any entity but the US and to give up any and all passports and rights of citizenship to other entiteis.

Europe, the UK and the US are being overrunby people not seeking to assimilate but to suck from the public welfare teat. They are economic migrants; therefore I propose that no funds from the federal government be spent to house, feed, or in any way support those who come here legally or illegally. That would include direct payment through programs funded by congress or any indirect payments through third parties such as NGOs that receive funds from the federal government). If immigrants need support, let legitimate charities provide it without taxpayer funding, not US taxpayers who must to pay taxes even if they oppose the immigration.

Because too many communities are overrun by immigrants (both legal and illegal) and lose their US identities due to it. Endemic populations lose their common culture and are forced to endure the invasion by other cultures or uproot their families and abandon there heritage in those places. This is unfair to the endemic populations; therefore, I propose that no naturalized citizen be allowed to hold publicly elected office at any level - local, state, or federal government - period. This would have the effect of having all elected offices held by native born citizens.

Those 3 changes would stop economic migration, encourage assimilation, and prevent the indigenous populations from being overrun by immigrant populations.

These changes would also oppose the ‘replacement theory’ being employed. It would also disincentivize any political party from placing immigrant interest above indigenous citizen interests.

UPDATE:
I left out a very important point in the original post.

The law should state that any immigrant who has not yet been naturalized who is convicted of a felony shall be immediately deported upon conviction and only allowed to return to the US upon successful appeal of that conviction. During the period of appeals, the immigrant and his dependents shall not be allowed to remain in the US. Additionally, if the immigrant should ever be allowed to return to the US legally, the period of waiting for naturalization shall restart at zero, with no credit given for prior residency.

extremely nationalist and hypocritical to the 2nd class citizens on reservations. ‘losing their culture’.

HAH. get out of here with ur lacking political foundation of ‘American Nationalism’.

acting like immigrants are the issue when it’s obviously the deficit based system of economics.

you only further the non-issue divide on innate rights like race, creed, etc. Natural Law, get w the times sum 400 years ago.

PEOPLE, aren’t the issue, it’s the dependency based system.

You might have a point but it is hidden by your inability to make it. Your first 3 paragraphs make no sense that I can decipher.

Your last paragraph might have a grain of insight, but it needs to be clarified and amplified.

If you meant to convey the idea that so-called entitlement programs are a problem, then please say so clearly and support your reasoning. You and I might agree on that issue, but to say that the influx of people with different ethnic, cultural, religious, and political beliefs cannot and will not overwhelm American values built over the last 400 years is ridiculous. Or, perhaps, you do not recognize or appreciate the values built over that span of centuries, in which case you and I cannot agree. In fact, it would be extremely difficult for me to invest any credibility in your intellectual position and knowledge.

Without all the drag, I’ll humor you.

THE US NEEDS NO ASSIMILATION OF CULTURE.

Immigrants should refuse to assimilate. In fact, I find the stance that European nations ‘being invaded’ ‘overrun’ or ‘losing their culture’ to be extremely hypocritical, when we imperialized the entirety of the continental US from the 300+ Tribes, some of which reformed and established Constitutions in order to be integrated with their cultures intact, only to be removed to a reservation, and forced to pay into a system that barely supports their existance while kneecapping their autonomy.

Nowadays, everything and everyone is built upon a dependency system, which breeds Federalist control, and effectively an oligarchic despotism based upon trade, so actually a plutocracy.

I stated that you prepetuate the divide by stating these PEOPLE, the migrants, are the issue. WE ARE ALL MIGRANTS. We are COLONISTS.

The REAL issue is determining government spending, how it is spent, and the base of currency recognized by the government.

Your currency is based on debt, with your continously taxed labor as the credit/interest payment system that uses the 16th Amendment as a guarantee that the fee will be procured under threat of fine or jail.

Everyone is based in a dependency trap, everyone pays into a system that chooses to give to foreign entities; those being people, governments, proxy armies, cartels, tribes, etc-while its citizens are heavily in debt, unable to buy or grow food, unable to save, unable to own a home or land, strictly living paycheck to paycheck, or even homeless and unemployed due to the lack of opportunity to own property and produce goods caused by overt government restrictions, lobbying practices, and unapportioned representatives.

I referenced you being 400 years behind in forethought because of the establishment of Natural Law being relative to John Locke’s writings in the 1600s, and how foolish it is to say ‘American Values’ when we’re a melting pot of many, many cultures under an Era of Enlightenment philosophy of thought.

Thinking that people, humans, are the issue, is wrong, and that alone is the core aspect of American values, based upon the main influence of our Founders, that being John Locke. The mindset of individual rights and the collective consenting to be governed in order to maintain their collective values, that being the whole of the Social Contract and Natural Law.

Sorry my previous response was formatted poorly.
