1,000,000 Squared

The U.S. Debt Quandary

... and as a modest proposal, issue special visa's that align individuals after 5 or 10 years (develop a vesting schedule) for American Citizenship for $1,000,000? A million entrants into the US with a $1,000,000 would provide not just an immediate injection that would dwarf the 700Billion, but it would provide an opportunity for all those individuals to contribute by filling empty foreclosed homes (rent or sales), pay sales & property tax and more.

The fact of the matter is America is the "ultimate gated community" in terms of people trying to get in. It is in fact American Dollars that are being funneled out of the country either through oil transfers to the middle east or through the walmart effect of industry. Trillions are sitting in the sidelines in Asia (China & India) or the Middle East and even in Russia (the recent oil boom and gas shipments to EU).

The problem is not "too much" immigration, its not enough of the "better" contributing economuc immigration. Fill the empty homes, refund the banks and financial institutions, and get the economy cash flow and velocity back through high income, high talented, willing supporters of American capitalist values. Give the 1,000,000 Squared plan a chance to work.
