> The system is unbelievably cruel. People die (or see their loved ones die) before they get greencards.

People die before many things, that's not really relevant and it's just an emotional statement. Compare the length and rate to other countries for an actual assessment.

A lot countries I've looked into take 5-10 years for citizenship, the US is 14.5 months on average.

I'm talking about the amount of immigrants taken in vs other countries. Yes the US is large and can take in a lot of immigrants, and we do, by far.
