Constitutional amendments do happen Ray, so never say never. Australia banned birthright citizenship in 2007 so it does happen.
If anchor babies and their families become an undue burden on American society (most would argue they already are), public resentment will continue to grow and things could change.
There are only 2-3 countries left in the world that still allow brithright citizenship. Sadly, we are one of them. It could change though if enough people get fed up with illegals and anchor babies.

This really needs to happen in America, but because of our vast size and varied ways of life, millions of people don't think it's a problem until it shows up on their back door.

And it will show up on their back door. Currently, millions of Americans who don't live in or near border states don't even have a clue about this issue.
They will though when illegals in large numbers start migrating north and into their backyards. It's only a matter of time.

I live in the mid-Atlantic and it showed up at my back door starting in the late 90s. They've created flophouses, some with 20-30 people living in them. They destroyed the once good schools to the point that the once good elementary school that my daughter attended now can't get full accreditation from the state. They brought gangs and shootings. Due to the flophouses, they've created parking problems and more gridlock on the road. The local politicians all turn a blind eye to it, too.
This debacle needs a once and for all ruling and should be retroactive back to the day after the idiot Reagan's amnesty.
Anyone that has come here illegally since 86, anyone born to those illegals and any subsequent anchors from the family line shall be deported.
Any visa overstayer and the kids they had after the expiration of their visa shall be deported and citizenship shall be stripped.
That IMHO would be going way too far although I'm have NO problem yanking birthright for any US born person UNDER 18 years old if BOTH parents were illegal aliens.

I hear ya. I love in a large suburb of Chicago. Tons of illegals running amok. Gangs. No insurance. No English. Terrible drivers. Clogging up roads and ERs. Ughhhh
