The evidence shows after nearly 8 years of Obama-Clinton that the EB-5 program is nothing more than a public auction awarding green cards to the highest bidders. This should surprise nobody. Remember when the Clintons auctioned off seats on foreign trade missions to the biggest campaign contributors and accepted millions of dollars in illegal campaign contributions from Chinese nationals? We could ask Ron Brown how that turned out for him, but he's six feet under now so he couldn't live to talk about it, along with the female associate they found murdered in the stairwell of his executive office building in Washington shortly thereafter.

LamLaw: Programatic, auctioned access is not legitimate "immigration," it's transactional cover for oath violators abusing the public trust in favor of self enrichment.

Responsible representation wouldn't suggest that America needs "investment" from the Chineese or Saudis. Counterfeit immigration suggests there's no market for this investment from those seeking credible, non-sugared return.

Actually, this program doesn't violate the U.S. Constitution. Article I, section 8 gives Congress the power to regulate immigration into the United States. It's apparently working as desired, since a lot of would-be immigrants are investing substantial sums in these projects. Of course, one can question the wisdom in this type of policy, but the constitutionality seems sound.

If the Republic is lost the blame lies directly with an ignorant, apathetic electorate combined with corrupt media, trained by Marxist professors at major colleges. Where is Dick Cady when you need him?

2015-05-17T14:34:32.689-05:00

This high rise luxe living tube sounded unreasonable from the start. Anon 12:21 draws connections only a looney liberal could make: a story about shady financing equates to xenophobia. No one anywhere in the Indy Star story or in the AI Comment posting section states or hints dislike with foreigners. This is a typical left liberal trick that hypocrites like Barry Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton use frequently....it's called the straw man argument.

But funding coming from countries that trample on personal civil rights, gay rights, and feminist rights (China, India, and some of the Saudi countries) is just okey dokey as long as a few short term contractor jobs are "created".

Gary, the Republic died a long time ago, probably at the beginning with the whiskey tax and putdown of the Whiskey Rebellion, or at the least Alien & Sedition Acts. I am talking about the Empire that arose with invasion of Canada in 1812, Mexico in 1846, Confederacy in 1861 ...

I am picking up what you are putting down regarding the money changers at Goldman Sachs and Federal Reserve doing Yhwh's work.

2015-05-17T12:21:04.965-05:00

OK, so we started out worrying about poor illegal immigrants in the country stealing "American" jobs. Now we're worried about immigrants who are entering legally and putting up millions of dollars that will be used to create American jobs, so, mostly, the idea is that we just don't like foriegners?

2015-05-17T12:18:40.439-05:00

The Star said,

"Flaherty & Collins usually builds projects only four or five stories tall. Its Axis apartment project a few blocks west, for example, has 44 more units than 360 Market Square. But it is only five stories tall, and takes up an entire city block.

But the company wanted this project to stand out."

F&C is having serious financial problems already with its Axis project. That should be an indicator of what is ahead for 360 Market.

The Republic is lost. Don't kid yourself. We live in an oligarch where the masses are slaves to the people of one ethnicity who now seem to control everything.

Along the lines of Pete Boggs, this is a sign of the death throes of empire, sort of like dying monarchies marrying the prince to the rich but ugly outsider. U.S. can't sell noble titles to attract capital so auctions citizenship, the closest approximation.

Anon 10:41 makes a good point. I am one of those of us non-IFD persons who suspected a professional arsonist the minute I heard about that Cosmopolitan fire and then I was convinced that was the case when I saw Brizzi nail an indigent, innocent African American to the wall in false blame... the charge made no sense in context of the accused's situation.

I've watched Carl Brizzi at numerous GOP functions and the guy is as unctuous as Valvoline. All I can surmise is that Brizzi either has a lot of dirt on some politicians OR his connections with the equally corrupt attorney David Brooks may have been helpful. The bottom line is that IMHO Carl Brizzi is a crook and should be in a federal prison.

I remain angered to this day that the lives of our firefighters were put at risk when a professional arsonist set F&C's Cosmopolitan project afire at the same time their high-rise condo building in Charlotte, NC tanked. There was never a proper investigation to discover the culprits despite ample surveillance video footage. Carl Brizzi's office tried desperately to pin the blame on an innocent, black man while letting the statute of limitations run on the true culprits.

2015-05-17T10:31:06.754-05:00

Like the numerous other corrupt deals the incompetent Greg Ballard lied about, this Flaherty & Collins Tower of Babel made no economic sense from the get-go. We have Councilors who are no more qualified to judge these types of projects than most fifth graders but we allow municipal economics ignorant Democrats and Republicans to spend our confiscated tax dollars with ease. The Councilors don't even know the correct or appropriate questions to ask... and John Russell's story prove that.

Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it and this sure seems appropriate when we recall the previous failed Taj Mahal proposed for the very same Flaherty/Collins site. Many of the same reasons for the earlier failure are present today.. and more... including the lies about the financing.

I could shout and list the names of the ignorant self-interest based Democrat and Republican Councilors who were chomping at the bit to shove barrels of our money to Angie's List, digital sign companies, the Criminal Justice Center scam, the AES gawd-awful parking meter deal, ad nauseam. Why vote... other than Scales most of the creeps on the Council haven't a clue to do much more than take campaign "donations" because, as one whined, "the sad truth is campaigns are expensive." Bottom line.. if you have the money you can buy off a Democrat or a Republican.

Auctioning the liberty, sovereignty & security of Americans is patently corrupt; a blatant violation of the Constitution & oath to uphold the same.
