If you already have the green card, that's true. If you don't and are seeking a job, you'll need a company to sponsor you to start the process - which is what I meant to say above. (Very simplified - experts forgive me).
For some perspective, you would be suprised to hear what some American pilots flying for Emirates, Cathay, and others would say about the U.S.A. Let's just say that the tea party crowd would not be pleased.
I wouldn't be surprised at all, and many in the "tea party crowd" would agree with them.
