I think #3 would bring a timely halt to all marriage based immigration!

Re: Marriage / K1 question
My proposals were tongue-in-cheek and not meant to be taken seriously. Matt's question did make me think about alternatives and to tell you the truth, it is not easy to come up with practical alternatives. Most other countries are much more liberal than we are in allowing foreign spouses to enter their countries but I am not advocating that either. It is not an easy matter although I still think the process could be streamlined. Fun to think about alternatives though.

Re #1, I would think that the foreign country might want to have something to say about the US sending over a non-citizen of said country?
Re #5-9 "no questions asked" would certainly be welcomed by those foreigners having terroristic tendancies.
Re #10, court dockets tend to be as backlogged as the USCIS service centers

Cowboy,
I'm relieved to read this. I think it's good for us to recognize that this is not an easy issue to deal with, there is no simple solution.
Are you sure about this? The one country that I have looked into - my wife's country - makes it much easier to visit as a tourist (no visa required for citizens of the US and many other countries), but getting residency takes years and money, and getting citizenship is legally possible but realistically impossible.
Regards, JEff
