Virginia’s Fears of a ‘Visa-for-Sale Scheme’ - Jim Geraghty - National Review Online
APRIL 11, 2013 By Jim Geraghty
Economic advisers to Tim Kaine had concerns about McAuliffe’s green-car company.

What is the purpose of GreenTech Automotive?

[The answer is simple: RIP-OFF THE GULLIBLE AMERiCAN PUBLIC.]

The company, founded by Terry McAuliffe, is now a top issue in this year’s Virginia race for governor. Until recently, the controversy over the company centered on the firm’s October 2009 decision to build a plant in Mississippi instead of Virginia. McAuliffe contended that he wanted to build a plant in Virginia, but the Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP) — the state’s business-recruitment agency — wouldn’t play ball.

“We had sites, we had meetings, and they chose that they weren’t going to bid on it,” McAuliffe declared. PolitiFact looked at the paperwork and rated that assertion false, concluding that “VEDP asked GreenTech to address its concerns and waited in vain for replies.”

But internal communications from VEDP now reveal that the state agency didn’t merely think that McAuliffe’s company had a risky business model. At least two high-ranking officials actually suspected that the company’s real aim was to make money by selling U.S. residency visas to wealthy foreigners.
