What a beautiful ideal

Unfortunately rarely a reality, I forgot to mention one important point: making double nationality impossible, you're either a US citizen or you aren't. That should halt immigration somewhat if just for pride !
Now, I don't want to pester immigrants with a law like this, but we have fourth (4th !) generation immigrants living in Belgium that still have their 'ancestral' nationality. How absurd is that ?
