Maria Sharapova, the 'Russian' tennis star, has lived in Florida since age 7, and is one of those who could be fast tracked to citizenship. She averages $27 million a year in income.
What does the U.S. gain from her skills?
Her skills are not mirrored by any out-of-work U.S. citizen and her fortune and marketing skills (with Nike) add to the economy. Entrepreneurs admitted under the program create jobs and add to U.S. tax income.
These people do not displace unemployed Americans.

guest GooFuS continues to display his ignorance.
