Lane's visa can't be indefinitely extended
I don't know what immigration law was like in 1963 but, if this were happening today, he would have been here as an L-1. SCDP could sponsor him as an H-1, or even for permanent residency, assuming there were no problems with visa numbers.

Immigration? You're lucky there isn't an exodus.
With all due respect, why would nerds want to stay or immigrate to a country where over 30% of the population doesn't believe in evolution? Not to mention a country whose world economic status is dropping faster than President Obama's approval rating. By 2020 the USA will be lucky to be one of the top five economic powers. Fat people shopping for ...

insuring illegal immigrants?
We already have people flooding across the border to have anchor babies, due to the current interpretation of the 14th amendment that anyone born on US soil is automatically a US citizen, and because de facto immigration policy is otherwise to enable illegal immigration by making it as easy as possible for illegal immigrants to function in ...

What question are we trying to answer?
This discussion is great! I keep thinking about the diachronic comparisons being made between African-Americans and the Fujianese and again with the 19th century European diaspora. Who knows anything about the criminal activities that surrounded the mass exoduses from Europe during the late 19th century? It would be interesting to see that ...

Re: Daniel Gross - Tourist Writer pas excellance
Hmmm, nowhere did I deny the racism or bias in Japanese immigration - in fact the immigration system change I mentioned is a crystalization of this, thus the controversy it started here. The real difference between Gross and myself is that he is purportedly a journalist, and with that moniker comes certain expectations, foremost being the ...

Latinos, Hispanics, and other racialized groups
I find it interesting that the dialogue about ''hispanics, Latinos,'' and other groups who have been racialized without their consent, continues without the benefit of cultural, historical, and social perspectives from members of that group. We are, after all, either Latinos or Hispanics, because American society and identity politics have forced ...

illegal immigration
Yes illegal immigration has dropped by 25%. But the vast majority of the 11 million illegal immigrants that are here - are staying here. The question is: what are they doing for work what with double digit unemployment?

Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics
1 in 50 children homeless? BS. Just wait, here comes one of the mothers of all lies to drive major policy change- the number of ''uninsured'' Americans. It has been quoted between 39 million (1990's) and now around 45 million (latest CPS statistics). It will be the driving reason for Obama's demand for healthcare reform. However, if you look ...
