A Green Card is your ticket to working in the land of Tom Cruise and Coca Cola.

Many have risked their lives crossing the U.S. border just to get the chance to work and make minimum wage on our shores. So why not massively speed up the process?

So this 4th of July, why not get a black market Green Card? It's easier than you think. Yes, spend the birthday of our great country as a faux legal citizen of the good ol' U.S.A.

Things Needed:

-Money

-Yourself

-A passport photo

-A new immigrant part of town

-Patience

The counterfeit Green Card boom kicked off in 1986 when the Federal law required all employers to verify legal status before hiring an employee. Putting a crimp on the illegal work force, if immigrants couldn't present a Green Card that equaled no job!

STEP ONE: Check Passport Photo Places in the Latino Part of Town

Such as on Mission Street in San Francisco, suspiciously hanging out in front of all passport photo places are two guys. When you pass they whisper, "Micas? Micas?" (Street-slang for Green Card.) If you're white, explain you are a Canadian illegal alien needing a work permit.

STEP TWO: Get a Passport Photo Taken

Thus the reason they hangout in front of these establishments; it's a one-stop shop. Chances are, the passport photo place gets a percentage for each black market Green Card client. Once complete your illegal Green Card ambassodor  will get your birthday and signature on a piece of paper to use on the illegal documents.
