It took us 12-15 years to get a GC (depends on how you count).
People who fraudulently or illegally come in have had it easier. And I was in the top 1% earner, built things that everyone here on HN has used. I’ve contributed a lot and struggled to get recognized. People don’t know how much of a mess this is. They claim they want smart people to come to the US. The system isn’t setup for it.
It's the Stephen Miller types that instituted a policy that throttled GCs by country of birth, independent of that country's population, as a way to achieve racial bias without explicitly talking about race.
Miller's ilk is ascendant in this administration and their Court has blessed their approach to discrimination.
