Response to Roland Rumrill's "America For Sale"

Is buying your way into America a process that all its citizens should know about? I’m curious to know how this program is marketed, if at all, to other countries. What do you think?

Roland brings up a new immigration path in his blog in which immigrant can pay a large sum of money, about $500,000, in order to expedite there rate to citizenship.  besides the obvious discrimination this path holds. Enabling wealthier immigrants to cut to the front of the line, while those who are actually seeking the refuge and opportunity of the untied states are left to wait, which in itself is sickening.  it goes against everything america stands for.  the whole idea of our country, as i see it is the act of working hard to achieve a goal.  this system rewards those who have already attained a large amount of capital and in most cases probably do not need the opportunity presented.  This method will obviously be geared towards the richest to the immigrant attempting entry to the country and i would be willing to bet kept a secret from those who do not have the income.  This idea goes against the principles of this country  and i hope it never comes into action.
