We could start a bond system, Kind of like posting bond to get out of jail. Those from certain countries who have a habit of never going home get the bigger bond. Those more trusted get a lower one. You get it back when you leave ontime and you lose it if your late.

It's an interesting idea, but would really only affect those who truly can't afford to lose the bond. And if you're able to put the bond up in the first place, you can probably afford to lose it. Especially those who already have family or other connections here.

As noted by others, it is that great.   I'm 100% sure you're overconfident and just made that number up. Based on DHS data, a quarter of non-immigrants coming by plane visit Florida, and t

Nobody would ever sign up for this and nobody would come on B1/B2 with super rare exceptions. Tourism and business would have huge losses. US would become North Korea.   Why not just ma

Or you could just make it more difficult to stay illegally, simple things that do not cost anything many actually generate money.
