That's a pretty surprising ratio. I don't doubt your knowledge but that does make it more of an interesting story.

The reason I don't think the non-citizens are getting a return on their investment - because they don't have to, they're getting the green card. And maybe it's not 0% but I have to believe they're coming in at a very discounted rate. Bill and his partner are surely pocketing a big majority of the deal's profits.

Wow. Thanks for the additional info.
