As an American, I found this story pretty disheartening. I can't for the life of me understand why we are putting up so many barriers, financial and otherwise, to smart, qualified entrepreneurs who just happened to be born somewhere else. It sounds like anyone who wants to come here and start a company without wasting thousands on lawyers and bureaucrats will be out of luck for the foreseeable future...
- notauser 18y agoMy parents have US passports, which means I am in the 8 year queue for a green card (2 of which is a wait to get a slot number!). There are no modifiers for education on this one, so a masters and other post grad qualifications don't mean much. I wish I could get an O1 visa, for no other reason that being _officially_ an alien of extraordinary ability would be well worth the effort :)
