Gold card immigration good for USA?

[Saltwater60]

I like this idea and could be great for the USA. Them paying us to come here and create income generation.

Trump proposes offering $5 million "gold card" to wealthy immigrants. Here's how it would work.

President Trump is floating the idea of a new "gold card" visa that would be sold to wealthy foreigners for $5 million.

Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?

Better than what we have now. They say they will vet them. Now we have all sorts of people just coming in sucking off us, well had that. Why not get money form an in demand service and keep in mind these people are already allowed to come here and do. He’s just trying to get money out of them coming here

Tell me all that’s wrong with an EB-5 visa now? The US only issued about 135,000 of them in 24 full years! That’s roughly 5,600 per year. They require an investment of about a million dollars. The $5million visa isn’t for regular immigrants. It’s replacing an already extant program with a new, more costly one. If only fewer than six thousand applicants per year were applying for EB-5 visas, WTF makes you think that a million people per year will apply for a $5million visa? This is insanity. Yeah, immigration is a problem, but I thought we all loathed “pay for play” politics? I certainly do.

We issue 10,000 per year right now so 5 million times 10,000 is no chump change. Then factor in the corporate taxes gained and income taxes gained and it seems like a good plan to me.

Do you think we will sell that many at $5million each? I have my doubts.

The U.S.A. is not for sale.
Get chi-na out of here too. Who sells land to an enemy?

Anyone with $5M is going to have a pretty easy footprint to vet too.

They sure aren't going to be claiming to be some random person with no documented history.

Many will pay the 5 million, likely from our looted/stolen USAID funds......................
Vetting will be done.................

I don’t know but if we can it would be better than what we have now.
