My thoughts on the Startup Visa bill

I'm confused... what's screwed up with our country's policy? Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't Germany have the same policies??? I've lived in Germany for a year of my life on a work visa from a large German corporation. They paid for me to live, work and contribute to the companies success in Germany (and throughout EMEA for the record). How would it be my right to just quit my job at this corporation and go start up another company just because my original corporation gave me the opportunity to live there.

Your contribution is to society is taxes?? Not sure I really follow you there.

Perhaps he means to pay back America by earning money and paying his way via taxes. Instead of taking all that education investment back home.

I don't understand your point. My point is that American students subsidized my education and there is no easy way for me to stay and repay society. Either through taxes, donations to charities in my local community, or job creation.

Germany might have similar policies but I think that's besides the point I'm trying to make about policy in America.
