Also the US is notoriously easier to get into than almost any other country
Haha, what do you base that on?!
My experience is the exact opposite. I’m a software engineer at a big tech company, and in this climate even they are unable to sponsor a visa to the US from the UK. Literally anywhere else? Sure, no problem at all, whether it be Europe, Singapore, China, Japan, Egypt, Australia, anywhere we have an office - except America.
Americans, welcome anywhere! We’ve got two in my team alone this year, and in 5 years they can get permanent residency. I know managers that want me on their team because I built tooling for them, but they’re not allowed to hire me because it would require a visa…
I base that on the laws and regulations that the US has for immigration, vs the ones that countries like The UK, Germany, Japan, Canada and Australia have. There are navigable paths to US citizenship for people that don’t have skills that are needed in the US. For many other countries you either have to be rich or skilled to get in. Poor people aren’t welcome. Poor people aren’t exactly welcome in the US either, but they can get in.
That’s absolute nonsense. Most countries have similar paths to entry. They also have paths that support specific jobs that are required by the country - something the US does not. Finally, many of them have easy and clear paths to naturalisation - again something the US doesn’t have.
Just because unskilled nationals make it into your country, it doesn’t mean that immigration in your country is easier than other countries. Every right-winger moans about the same thing in every country you’ve listed…
David Beckham got treated like royalty and carried into citizenship.
If you wanna get gay married for citizenship I’m cheap and have fantastic insurance.
I’m almost positive that David Beckham isn’t a citizen of the US. That’s almost definitely by choice, given that he’d meet the criteria for investment several times over.
While I appreciate the offer, I think my wife would probably not be too happy with me taking another lover. 😂
