dass ich dort dann vermutlich
Chinesen, Japaner und Russen als Nachbarn haben werde, naja, das muss

man

halt in Kauf nehmen ...

Glaube ich nicht. Die kommen da als permanent residents NIEMALS rein.

Hallo,

sag' niemals nie. Zu diesem Thema gibt's "a beautiful idea" von G. Bush's Grundschulllehrer und T. Butler's Freund und Mentor. Ob sie realistisch ist, entzieht sich meinem Beurteilungsvermögen:

"My Solution to the Housing and Mortgage Crisis

By Israel Friedman

We, the country, are in big trouble with this crisis, as real estate, mortgages, banks and financial firms are threatened. Our big institutions created this problem with poor foresight and lax lending standards. While it seems that everyday new solutions are being proposed, there is much skepticism and flaws behind the various solutions offered. I have a simple solution that has not been proposed up until now.

At the heart of the problem is too much unsold inventory putting downward pressure on housing prices. We have an inventory of millions of unsold homes, and the only real solution is to have this inventory bought. But by whom? My proposition is that the US Government issue one million additional green cards annually to wealthy future immigrants, who are willing to buy a residence in the US for $300,000 or more for cash (no loans or no mortgages). And they would have to have another $200,000 for 2 years for living expenses.

Any house bought by those being issued green cards could not be sold or borrowed against until citizenship was granted (usually about five years), although a sale would be permitted if a more expensive house were purchased as a primary residence.

These new immigrants would have to go through the normal immigration process and only with that government approval would be issued green cards. No Terrorists or criminals.

I know that some will say it’s not a fair proposition because it favors the wealthy, but sometimes you must do things that benefit the country as a whole, and everyone can see we are in a crisis. Remember, this does not involve taxpayer money. Besides the normal immigration policies would still apply, so less wealthy people can still immigrate to the US. I am just proposing additional green cards for the wealthy that buy houses they will live in.

This is intended as a temporary solution only, until housing prices steady out, as there are many millions of wealthy people in the world who would love to take advantage of this offer. If it was not restricted and temporary, and too many took advantage of it, we might see such a re-heating of real estate prices that we would be back in the bubble again. We don’t want to see that again. Of course, the green cards would have to spread out over the country so that all the new buyers would not go to only a few areas."
