I traveled for years doing business everywhere in the world and I always did it on a tourist visa: US, Australia, Europe, China, Turkey, South America even Russia (notoriously bureaucratic for these things)... anywhere. And all the people I met did the same. Business travel wouldn't probably even be possible. You've got to catch a plane and go, fast. If we start treating business people like immigrants on a boat we are doomed.
