No doubt. A better system would encourage more people to go through proper channels.
One of the incredibly stupid things is that various
countries send their best students to American
universities, and when they get their Masters
and PhD's they get kicked out.
A lot find ways to stay, but seriously!! They should
be
encouraged to stay.
A friend from Japan was mid semester, working on
her masters, and the INS said she had to go home
within 2 weeks. I helped her fight it, and she stayed.
But wtf???
Some fat-*** swivel chair bureaucrat with a computer
has to try to make a quota? Etsuko was easy to find!
A criminal illegal alien?? Could be like hard, or scary!!
