<<When someone is a citizen (such as of the United States), they can only know the value of US citizenship in comparison to something else. Most US citizens do not travel so they never learn the value of US citizenship. For example, if you are a US citizen who does travel then you quickly learn that the US passport is one of the best in the world. This means just by being a US citizen you get one of the top passports.>> I'm more pro-american than most Americans I know :) paradoxical, but fact. US citizenship is just a set of specs. It is not one size fits all. As you see there is exodus of richer and inflow of poorer people. Or inflow of 'fugitives' - like new rich from risky places like China. Or inflow of massive amounts of money which is incompatible with citizenship or residence - utilizing USA as highly secretive money hideout. I say that in order to emphasize that it is not consistent construct to mishmash .: citizenship is debt, but it is a juice worth the squeeze because US is the best. We must keep facts and ideologemes separate. They do not mix well.
