Let the Dumb Stay - Kick the Smart Out!

Oh, American Immigration.

With a potential 12 million illegal immigrants - almost all unqualified manual workers and their families - about to get their chance at legitimate citizenship, the good people at the BCIS (Bureau for Cackhanded Immigration Silliness) have decided that this imbalance needs to be addressed. That's why they're cracking down on the 1 million highly qualified, highly capable 'brainiacs' trying to get their crack at the American dream.

It's all outlined here, in this yahoo article.

WASHINGTON (AFP) - The huge backlog in US immigration visas is leading to a "reverse brain-drain" that will force skilled workers to return to their home country, a report released Wednesday concludes.

That's right. Somebody at the BCIS (Bastion of Completely Incompetent Staff) has noticed that 31 percent of all new tech start ups in America (the ones that raise money, pay taxes and push the American economy forward) are started up at least in part by legitimate immigrants - and dammit, they're going to put a stop to it.

Why have successful businesses boost the economy and generate income for working Americans when we can instead lose tax revenue and put blue collar workers out of business by farming our work out to illegal immigrants?

It makes PERFECT SENSE!

At least it does to the BCIS (Bundled of Criminally Insane pSychopaths) who seem unable to understand that legitimate immigrants (the ones who fill in forms and shovel thousands of dollars into the BCIS) are the ones who pay their taxes and abide by the US laws.

It's madness, plain and simple. Ever since George Bush bundled together his 'Homeland Security' package to replace the relatively efficient INS (Immigration and Naturalisation Service) the immigration situation in America has gone steadily downhill.

I'll reiterate my experiences for the millionth time. I paid my fees. I filled in my paperwork. I did everything by the book - and we got screwed out of three years of our lives.

Crossing the Rio Grande seems like a smarter option.

Until something is done to reverse this crazy situation, money will be channeled OUT of America by illegal immigrants instead of channeled INTO America by the legitimate, hard working ones.
