Not a lot of people are willing or able to talk about the subject of what it's like coming to America. The visa process, the corrupt 3rd party recruitment agencies, the 90 day window you have to secure employment, the blatant racism. It's the wild west out here. The only way to tackle ignorance is with facts.
