The permission to obtain a resident visa should be based on rules.
These rules for legal entry should be flexible. Clearly political oppression is high on my list. As should talent and education be high on the list. Pure economic need is very low in my book. Making money for money' sake should not be the motive for entry to these United States. It does not make for good American's.
The ability to obtain citizenship should be based on having obtained legal residency for 5 years as has been the requirement for many years.
During this period of 5 years the applicant for citizenship should never have been arrested for a felony or capital crime and also should have been employed in a productive capacity and never been on the dole.
Welfare = NO citizenship.
Felony = Deportation.

If you are thinking in the best interests of the country, the most talented.
If you are thinking in the best interests of humanity, the most oppressed.
If you are thinking in the best interests of business, the neediest.

Citizenship preferene should be focused on national interest. That means what's good for the country.
It's not class discrimination to demand that people who immigrate have something to offer our society. In fact NOT doing so creates a huge financial drain on our economy. Welfare programs already cost taxpayers tons of money. There's no practical reason to invite people who can't support themselves.

That is a hard question to answer. We want the best and brightest in our country, but do not want to exclude those facing severe hardship in thier own countries.

Just like other countries, you need a sponsor and a way to make a living.and some money.
We are a country not a charity.

citizenship preference should be given to those who have followed the law and have something to contribute to our society.
