71. "Citizenship" is NOT the problem.

Getting permission to live & work in the USA is.

Back in my grandparents' day, showing up at Ellis Island with no obvious disease was the only requirement (if you were white). Work was available & education for the children. Citizenship usually followed.

Now, immigration lawyers support themselves by winning Green Cards & other papers for immigrants. Citizenship is still earned. It appears that you want 2nd class workers in the USA--able to work but NEVER to become citizens. Not very bright.

Lose the ALL CAPS.
