First, it is very difficult to persuade the U.S investors to invest $100,000 to your company for start-up in U.S. Suppose the U.S. investors have $100,000, why those investors keep this money for their own business ? Second, any business take risk and if the international business owner lose money in their own business, so how can they repay the money to investors? Also, these international business owners may create another type of illegal immigrants. Since these international business owners may NOT know US very well, so why don't allow international students who have US advanced degrees and have stayed in US for over 10 years to get green card to stay in US to start their own business with their own choice to hire 1-3 people to ease the unemployment in US. I think this may be more realistic than issue the start-up visa to international business owners. US has so many international students if they hire 1-3 people by creating jobs, the results are similar to issue the start-up visa to international business owners.
