How about voting "rights" for noncitizens?
Then it's not a "right", is it?

It could be.

It's up to the State to decide that.

Though a State can't let a non-citizen vote in a Federal election, a State has the right under the Constitution to allow a non-citizen to vote, or not, in a State election.

Most Republicans simply can't accept this is true.
Just goes to show; there's a lot in the Constitution that Republicans simply don't believe in.

Starship Troopers rules.

Starship Troopers depicts a fascist one-world government, brought about by exactly the kind of "National Security" justification that fascists always gin up to justify their fascism.

All Starship Troopers did was dream up an actual global justification for fascism that even a Liberal would have to acknowledge.

It's a work of fantasy that resonates with fascists, because it provides a fantasy rationale where their fascists desires seem justified.

"and they have
no claim to representation in Congress or the state legislatures. 35"

Undocumented people are enumerated by the Census, and Congressional representation is apportioned according to number of people in a State. Thus, illegal immigrants do in fact have representation in Congress. Note that Trump issued an Executive Order for the Census Bureau to stop counting undocumented citizens in 2020, and he did it again this year.

So, uh, you're just drinking the Fascist Kool-Aid.

Don't read too much into it

I didn't. I read it at face value. I simply understood what I was reading.

"Can you understand that, aside the facetious movie reference, there is a principle of applying citizen status to those who contribute?"

Yes, I'm aware of the principles of fascism.

You're the one struggling to identify them as such.

If citizenship is too freely assumed, it becomes cheap. Worth less.

Such ---------.

That's like saying if we let the gays get married, it diminishes the value of straight marriage.

"white people are considered sub-human slaves."

Golly, whites inferior? Not even M. Knight Shamalayan could come up with a twist like that!

"Some may agree that compulsory service is beneficial to society."

Yes, most any society would benefit from free labor and forced indoctrination, though I suppose it does depend on what services are demanded and what ideology is instilled.

Sending MSgt to Vietnam was not in fact beneficial to society, for example. It cost millions of dollars for basically nothing in return.

"Try looking up some legal decisions if you want a debate."

"For one thing, another's marriage does not cost me money."

Neither does another citizen.
Neither does a legal immigrant.
Neither does an undocumented immigrant.

US GDP is expected to be reduced by 1%, thanks to Trump's mass deportations.
Look like "things that cost you money" is just one of many topics you didn't spend any time or effort learning!

New York (CNN) " President Donald Trump has promised to unleash an economic boom that will turbocharge growth, fatten paychecks and chip away at America's mountain of debt.

However, a new analysis from Trump's alma mater suggests that his immigration crackdown " a centerpiece of his second term " could do the exact opposite.

"Full citizenship should have a qualification other than jumping a fence."

For example, it should be limited to Whites.
We get it.

"Not really, the benefits of marriage are not comparable to the benefits of citizenship."

That still doesn't really address the issue.
How does the existence of other citizens diminish the value of your citizenry?
Are citizens valued due to their physical scarcity, like Gold and Bitcoin and Picassos?

Illegal immigrant rights: NONE

You're a fascist who doesn't even know what's in the Constitution

We get it.
