This should make you feel more secure about immigration

Check this out.  These people are giving away US green cards FOR LIFE in a LOTTERY??

I'm sure this has been around for awhile, but who are these people and why are we giving away green cards in a freakin lottery when there are people with legitimate visa requests that can take months of waiting?  And they give away 50,000 of them?  A year??  Something smells here.  The govt. wants to fingerprint TOURISTS but is perfectly willing to go along with allowing someone who just draws a lucky number to get a free pass.

Somebody tell me I'm missing something and this is really ok.  I'm confused.

Scam.  You are paying for a service that is free through the government.

Not only is it a scam, it's an historic scam.

The very first case of spam on the internet was a mass post to every newsgroup on usenet titled;
THE NEXT GREEN CARD LOTTERY MAY BE THE LAST

It was about that obnoxious, and came from a law firm (Cantner and Seigel or something close...)

Probably Bush supporters too.
