No other country would dream of offering citizenship to unskilled

Dems want to grant citizenship in exchange for votes.


Even NYC mayor Bloomberg was on TV news the other day saying that
green cards should be given to foreign entrepreneurs who employ 10
Americans and that they could keep their green cards as long as they
kept the Americans employed.


Bloomberg always was and will always be a 1st class idiot. Any foreign
entrepreneur worth their salt will put their employment money where it
gets the best return, and that's *not* in the USA. And if someone has
that kind of money they certainly don't need to beg for US citizenship.

Really?

Tell that to the guy who became a US citizen so that he could own the Fox TV
stations.

In practice, my understanding that it's pretty easy for the "Super Rich" to
"buy" US Citizenship.

Precisely what I said. Someone with money doesn't have to beg for
US citizenship.


The Swiss also do this. The Swiss are very practical people: rather than
have the applicant promise to hire so many people or "invest," they simply
demand $100k + up front.

The US should do the same thing.
