It would allow non-US entrepreneurs with funding from a US investor to get a visa to start a company. StartupVisa would be wayyy more beneficial than the housing thing... get folks to contribute to society, hire local workers, etc. Those local workers then can in turn buy homes, etc.

If you don't like anything the investor suggests after you have moved then he withdraws the funding and you get deported. Can we think of how a good capitalist VC might use that to their advantage?
- untog 15y agoI think you're overstating the issue. I am in the US in an H1B visa and am in no way 'slave labor'. But I can't start my own company- the Startup Visa would finally solve that issue.
