If they are disallowed from importing worker bees on H1B visas I’m for it.
Then and only then should you think about doing this.
I’m a US citizen with a small business. I think I would like to be a non citizen resident visa also. That way, I would not be subject to the health care individual mandate to purchase qualified health insurance. What a great time to be a US citizen with less rights than an illegal or legal alien.
How an incentive plan for those who already are citizens and have paid taxes forever. In other words, how about taking care of your own people first.
That way they can hide all of the money they already have, get loans at lower rates than American citizens, and run all of their competition out of business without risking a cent of their own.
Great system we have here in America.
I also own a business.
Why would our government fund potential businesses of non-Americans at the expense of tax paying Americans?
Give ME the tax credit!
And as a condition of entry the founder visa holders agree to the most stringent workplace enforcement at their start ups to guard against their ever employing illegal aliens.
I'm sick of native born Americans getting the shaft time after time. NO MORE!
fine by me. If an H1B loses their job and wants to start another company, without going on the dole, then I would be open to letting them stay.
It would be conditional and they would have to hire American workers.
I have had some friends move back to India and China after their jobs were eliminated but, if they were going to create a new company, I’d let them stay.
But I digress. We don't need any more interlopers and invaders just to prop up our economy. Our culture and it's norms are being diluted more and more every day by the influx of non-western dregs.
If Helga Hottentot wants to immigrate from Finland and has a level of hotness, manners, and wealth that I deem on a par with the rest of mainstream America, then I approve. But all I see are fat Mexi- and Hondura-indians who drive drunk, rape, and murder yet act, erroneously, like they are my social equals.

Total 2008 Federal Corporate Income taxes was $275B.
So we could have given every corporation nearly a 3 yr hiatus on corporate income taxes for the cost of the failed stimulus.
Somehow I feel that would have definitely STIMULATED job growth.
What an ingorant crock of sh**.
What an ignorant crock of sh**.
Who the heck wants to start a business in America now? We’ve got a government right now that wants to punish success, punish companies that take care of their own employees by self-insuring, punish employees of successful companies that give bonuses, and punish companies that want to share the wealth with the general populace and go public. Wanting to start a business in America today is a clear sign of insanity, and we shouldn’t give visas to nutters.
Theirs is a reasonable system,IMO.They take only the people who can contribute the most...for the longest period of time...before they become a "burden" on the system (old...illness prone..."high maintenance").
We should do the same.*ONLY* those who can contribute something that we don't have enough of can get in.
