People still want to go to the USA?
Cha-ching! There is nothing more to america than money. It's money all the way down.
My trip to the USA in 2016 was one of the most harrowing, dehumanising, and humiliating experiences of my life. And I'm talking specifically about the actual journey, i.e. after the already lengthy, painful process of acquiring a visa.
They treated me like a terrorist. I had to be escorted by 2 armed big dudes around the airport, and they flipped their shit when I reached for my phone to tell my brother it'd be a while before I can come out (just so he wouldn't worry.) They went through my bag and were handling everything SUPER gently, asking if it was "safe" for them to touch it.
They then confiscated my passport, walked off, and literally never returned it to me. I spent hours asking various members of airport staff what to do because I was screwed. Thankfully, eventually one of them found it in a drawer and gave it back to me.
I was a minor BTW. I have had no desire to repeat the experience since.
Honestly, I wish I was in your shoes because you get to leave this place.
do not come to the united states, you safety, dignity, and sense of self, is not protected by the trump administration
Oh, sure it is. Now with the premium subscription for only a one time fee of $5mil you can be assured your safety is in the rights hand. At least until the goal post moves again. Oh, and we both know you can just buy dignity now, right? Right?
So cooked.
So as a Canadian here is yet another reason to never visit the newest Oblast USA...
Russia sold Alaska to USA, and instead of buying it back, they took the whole USA to themselves. Now it’s called Amerika Oblast.
Canadian Citizen will not need Visa thou. So this does not apply.
Putin prefers to call it "Amerika Oblast".
we.. all living in Amerika.. Oblast.... coka cola... Wonder bra... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Rr8ljRgcJNM
You can just use that $250 to get pegged by an escort and have a better experience.
250 for 10 mins work sounds like a good time. I should change career paths.
I believe Netanyahu has nominated Trump for the "Tourism person of the year" award
And it means a lot coming from him.
Getting handled like a piece of shit at customs, having to pay an outrageous amount of money for the privilege, and can be "taken care of" by the US GeStaPo. Being a foreign tourist in the US is now more like masochism instead of a relaxing holiday.
Why yes, I'd love to pay an additional $250 fee to be shipped off to a gulag.
As well as spend 5-50000 days in custody anywhere from seatac to the Everglades concentration camp to the el Salvador concentration camp. The US occupied Guantanimo Bay facility is also on the table, though camp X ray is unlikely to be available
😂😂😂 they ticket mastered tourism.
It just keeps getting dumber.
Just forgot about the monopoly part
The “visa integrity fee” applies to all visitors who need nonimmigrant visas, which includes tourists, business travelers and international students.
The fee is paid when the visa is issued, according to the provision.
Every international business meeting and conference just cancelled. Visits to Disney World plummet.

Department of tourism doing the lords woke. Braise jeasus.
Even if they would pay me $250, I wouldn't want to go there.
Boy am I looking forward to the World Cup next year. If things keep trending this way it will be one of the most enjoyable cluster fucks I'll have ever witnessed.
Here’s a reminder that the Olympics was held in Nazi-controlled Berlin, and a team of 18 black athletes from the US thoroughly trounced Hitler’s “master race” talking points by sweeping the medals.
The black athletes then had to return to the US, where segregation was still the norm; many of them struggled to support themselves afterwards, because racism kept them from being hired into any decent jobs.
