"Ole Lindsey will be lucky if he is returned to DC,"

Really?

Is he up for reelection next year?

(As far as the 'points system', I think it makes more sense for us as a nation to be having educated and skilled people immigrate to here... instead of poor and uneducated folks more likely to burden social services.)

So, as far as the 'point system' goes, I see it as an IMPROVEMENT over the system that now that gives preference to 'family relations', and not to talent/education/ability, etc.

If there is going to be a 'brain drain' I'd prefer it to be BENEFITING the US....
