So your argument is:

1, these people were born in America.
2, these people, despite no longer residing in America are considered be American citizens and pay taxes.

What’s the problem here - it verifies my position.

The problem is the assumption you're making in number 2. The "Accidental American" problem impacts people who've never lived in the U.S. and have NO ties to the U.S. other than the fact that their alien mothers gave birth in the U.S. while just passing through the country or in the country for a brief stay.
