Ignorance
Just wanted to educate my fellow pilots here, I am a once green card holder, now naturalized US citizen.
To get a green card is not easy, so the argument that all the foreigners are talking our jobs is pure ignorant and silly.
As a US Citizen you can go to Europe and get work permits the same way most of us green card holders got them. Only thing I agree with, you would have to deal with the Moronic, and protectionist JAA/JAR nonsense conversion, that serves no possible mission other than being an bureaucratic obstacle. Especially since the FAA converts a JAA/JAR license with relative ease.
Anyway just my two cents...
