$5 million for a green card?
The President has proposed immigrants be given an expedited path to citizenship with a “Gold Card” for just $5 million. He fantasized about a million people applying. I think it is hubris. I have friends in Western Europe and Canada who would never consider such a move because the standard of living stateside is lower. It might appeal to someone from China or India but combined, those countries only have about 4,000 people with $100 million or more. https://www.npr.org/2025/02/25/nx-s1-5308649/trump-green-card-gold-card…
