<span> New immigrants into the United States
will be
expected to contribute much to our society.
We are already a nation of immigrants.
And we have room for more creative, intelligent, &
educated people.</span><span> And Americans have no monopoly on business
creativity.
Entrepreneurs who have proven themselves in other lands
might decide that they would like to live in the USA.
They might also continue their successful businesses in their
homelands.
But expanding in the United States
might be good both for the business and for America.
Their applications to come into the United States
will mention all of their accomplishments in their homelands
and lay out their plans for creating new companies in the USA.
If they have money to invest
in new businesses in America,
this is also relevant for accepting them.
If they have their own capital, they will not have to borrow money
in order to establish their enterprises in America.
</span><span>Creativity is a human capacity that emerges in only
a few individuals.
And there is no geographical limitation on where creativity might
appear.
Individuals who have already shown creative talents in their homelands
can certainly mention such talents in their applications to
emigrate.
The American officials who are responsible for
selecting immigrants
from the millions of applicants who would like to live in America
might develop some special
committees in
specific areas of creativity
who will evaluate the claims of creativity in prospective
immigrants.
Sometimes these evaluators will mistakenly reject applicants
who subsequently prove their creative abilities in their homelands.
And after such creativity has become more obvious,
these creative individuals can be considered for immigration once
again.
On the other hand, some expectations of creativity
will prove mistaken.
Some citizens of other countries who were admitted to America
because they were expected to make meaningful creative contributions
might prove disappointing.
The same happens in every American family:
Children expected to become geniuses prove to be no better than
average.
Children of immigrants might be no more creative than most Americans.
Nevertheless, looking for
creative contributions
will always be relevant in selecting new Americans. </span><span>Educational achievement is easier to measure
than creative potential.
The applications of prospective immigrants will show
how many years of formal education they have undertaken.
Any degrees and academic awards will also be relevant.
New immigration laws in the United States might
never specify
a minimum level of education required.
But when immigration officers must choose between two applicants,
the one with more education will have an advantage.
Education will never be wasted.
Not all educated people in the world will come to live in the USA.
Even if they do not
fulfill their dream of living in the United States,
their education will be valuable in helping them
to make better lives for themselves in their homelands.
And their homelands will be enriched by more educated citizens.
The United States of American will not automatically
admit
every applicant who has a PhD or
equivalent.
Each homeland and the whole world is enriched
when people improve their thinking capacities
and apply their minds to solving problems.
Occasionally foreign nationals will train themselves
for specific kinds of occupations in the USA.
For example, they might become engineers for industries
that only exist in the advanced countries of the Earth.
They will offer their services to all prospective employers.
And if no nation wants them,
they might see if they can start that industry at home.
U.S. immigration policy should be careful
not to
create a 'brain drain' on other countries.
Many of the best students from other lands come to the USA for
education.
In some cases, they apply to become U.S. citizens.
But we might also help such foreign students to return to their
homelands
and to use what they have learned to make better societies at
home.</span><span>Those applicants who already have family members
living in the USA
will be more likely to adjust to their new homeland
than immigrants who have no such support systems.
Sometimes churches or other groups of people
decide they will take special responsibilities for new immigrant
families.
When any such systems of support are ready to aid the new
immigrants,
then these applicants have an additional factor in their favor.
All such support-systems should be mentioned in the visa
application.
Prospective immigrants who know exactly where they
will live in the USA
and what specific persons will help them to adjust
will be better candidates for immigration
than prospective immigrants without identified support-systems. </span><span>
And the departure of people not granted citizenship
opens up more space in the USA for other applicants.
Unlike applying for college, a
particular age is not expected.
Immigrants can be admitted to the USA at any age.
Any applicant has a life-time to prove himself or herself.
Because B says whenever it wishes and it cannot do that considering freedom of speech, C says that None of our rights would be secure if we treated everyone’s rights as unlimited. Boo yah B)
