Other countries also care very little for how many relatives you have in the country and cut zero slack for anyone other than your immediate family IF you sign a pledge and show means to support them. They will also cut you some slack if you are married to a national of their country.

But the biggest factor in their decision to grant a visa is whether or not you will be an asset to the host country.

Chronic criminals and wards of the state are excluded from the get-go. They don't care how much you love your bum chum or whatever.

My grandparents came here in the early 20’s.

Growing up, ‘God d^%m foreigner’ was cast in my face more often than I like to admit.

Oh well, I always thought... when WE came here there were standards and America wasn't letting JUST ANYONE in. It made me feel better to think of it that way.

Also, every single uncle I had and a cousin fought in the second war and in Korea... and did so gladly and honorably. After all, we WERE American!

The people who get in here now are poor, illiterate, possibly diseased, openly Anti-American and in some cases, criminals.

There is NO vetting whatsoever and the Gov. has the preposterous expectation that their ‘multiculturalist’ schtick will fly in spite of the social and economic disaster which this will bring, (HAS brought)!
