Everybody wants world peace....
I like the comments like: Lets not bicker. Lets maintain peace. blah blah blah...
Well I am definitely not going to fuel the fire but I liked reading some arguments and counters. Someone also mentioned that it is making the forum "not-boring", well great!! So everything seems to be ok.
Keep up the good work and lets keep waiting.
1) One of the points we should we worried about is that it will be difficult for an "achiever" to stay at one post for 4-5 years or how ever long it takes for GC approval, which would mean that people from certain countries (read India, China and Phillipines) who work very hard and are known for their intellectual prowess, will be bound and chained to their current employers and posts.
2) With so much back log, it is highly unprobable that people applying now with legitimate means can dream of getting GC. Unlike some who applied early and were at the right time and right place to get their GCs in a couple of years.
3) Heisenberg's principle: if we keep pinging the workers with our queries then there are more resources lost in answering the questions than there would be if they would spend their time processing applications. I can understand all our concerns etc. but we should also realise that (however slow or fast they are), we should let them do their job and find out ways of facilitating them in that. Instead of balking their work, we should see and lobby towards govt. spend more towards processing or better still, ways of faster processing.
4) Temporary removal of any limitations for awarding GC. Once the labor is cleared, everyone should be able to file for 140 & 485 simultaneously. Remove back log and then put more rules in processings and requirements. Maybe Beloved Bill was on the right track (one of the very few times). {BTW did anyone hear about the new RED screen of death }
More when I dream of something else...
