Selling to the highest bidder is problematic

Ditto. Just pulling things out of your ass again.

It’s in the damn title of this thread! Doesn't mean I subscribe to it when I post to the thread.

"Selling" the path to citizenship has been there since the beginning of the program. Biden added the $1 million price tag in 2022. Trump is increasing it to $5 million and putting more vetting on it.

Many countries offer residency to people willing to invest there.

‘ Doesn’t mean I subscribe to it when I post to the thread.’

No, it doesn’t. But it’s the subject being discussed after Trump said that the program would have a path to citizenship and said Russian oligarchs would be eligible.

What you endorse, what I endorse isn’t the issue, at all. We’ve got no say except to bitch on the internet.

Six million gold card immigrants could raise $30 trillion
dollars to pay off the debt.

That six million people would be injecting other wealth
stimulus into the nation.

We would see new business, new purchasing power, new
investments, and a host of great benefits.

Contrast that with the illegals we have now. They must be
housed, fed, given income, provided with healthcare,
schools for their children... it never ends.

I’m with this new gold card entry system all the way.

We are paying more servicing the national debt right now
than we are on our military.

Bring it on!

I can't disagree with that.

I'd rather have 200,000 people who can afford $5 million to come here on a 1990 legal path to citizenship than 5,000,000 people with no dollars at all storm the southern border to come here.

Trumps plan pay 5 million to begin on the pathway to citizenship, create jobs, build companies, generate tax revenue for the US Treasury.

Versus Biden plan cross the border anytime totally unburdened by what has been, criminal record No Problem, suspected of mass murder No Problem, suspected of brutal rape No Problem, suspected of involvement in child trafficking No Problem, operating a Fentanyl smuggling operation No Problem. All participants receive $25,000 in monthly benefits including Luxury housing, Free food, Free medical care, Obama phones, Locate in any US city with Free Airfare. Can’t pass the background check, No Worries there isn’t one ! No one will even ask you’re name or where you’re going.

I like the idea and am inclined to support it, it is still Federal Law that Legal Immigrants have a SPONSOR, I was required to sign away my income and assets for 10 years to guarantee my wife would not be a public burden. He should issue an Executive Order mandating the Public Employee’s of every State the LEGAL SPONSORS of all Illegal Aliens present in their State and attach all of their income, tips, wages and assets to PAY FOR THE foreign national criminal invaders they support.

One would hope they are vetted. Otherwise $5M buys any terrorist entrance with suitable backers, strapped to a nuke suitcase?

Anyone who has some issues/questions about this should watch Trump’s presser today at his first Cabinet meeting.

The new program was addressed. Can’t provide a time stamp, but look for it. It’s worth the watch.

FWIW, he won me over.

“My bet is that most of these will be Chinese.”

Repeating my comment post 51: how many of them will be spies?
