    Ah I’m sorry, yeah I get your line of thought. There are some visas and pathways to citizenship that come with higher fees that are kind of like what you’re thinking.

    But yeah, immigrants pay a lot of taxes in the US (which also varies by state). It’s a detail that a lot of people don’t really think about when talking about immigrants and the issues therein.

    I like your questions because they almost always stir a good bit of replies. Which sometimes kicks off deeper conversations which is fun!

      do appologize to you and scooby but I am going to yell. ABOUT FUCKING TIME PEOPLE GET WHY I POST. That’s it. But really you have no idea how hard it is to get recognition of what I am doing without saying it.
