An Idea for Modifying the Visa Lottery: 50,000 Offers, Not 50,000 Visas Guaranteed
By David North on October 10, 2017
The fact about the "Diversity Visa Lottery" that dare not speak its name is that about half of the aliens who win the lottery either reject the prospect of actually coming to America, won't pay the $330 fee, or are found to be unqualified (despite the lottery's loose standards).
That half of the winners won't or cannot use their apparent good luck is rarely discussed; it might suggest that the pool of potential migrants is not that interested in our country, or entered the lottery despite the fact that they were not eligible. Discussing this would cast aspersions on the potential migrant pool, and that would be politically incorrect. So it is not discussed. (It is also a little obscure.)
