Should living in the U.S. be treated as a right, or a privilege ?
I look at it as a privilege, if you are allowed to live here, you have proven to this country that you can contribute in a positive way.

A privilege for foreign born people or people born of non-citizens

It should be treated as a privilege. Not everyone should be allowed to live in this country. If you are not a productive morally sound member of society then you don't deserve to live here. We do not need anymore criminals or people that leech off the taxpayers.

It is a privilege for a lucky percent of the world to live here.

I've seen a lot of bad neighborhoods and ugly houses. To some it's like a prison sentence living here.
It's a piece of land. I will never die for any country. I think on my own. I don't need to prove to this country that I belong they frigging tax me enough.
I have one German car. I have one Japanese car made in America. I have one Swedish car that is made in Holland. I have an American car which is now owned by a German car and made by a Japanese car. Tires from France, leather from Argentina, and parts from Asia. Oh yeah, don't forget Russian, Middle East and Venezuelan oil
I don't feel any loyalty to a particular flag, I work with the whole world.

All privileges are earned, all rights come with responsibilities. And luck is just coincidence.
No free rides.

A privilege if they are granted citizenship. A RIGHT if you are born here of legal parents. Illegal immigrants have neither.
