Creating a Business in the US on an H1-B Visa?

GnaGnaGna asks: "I've lived in the US for almost a year now and have a full time position with a major American company under an H1-B visa (work visa for foreigners). Besides this job, I also run an increasingly popular website generating AdSense revenues. I am not sure if I am allowed to create a US company (most likely an LLC), under my legal status, and transfer the Adsense profits to my personal bank account or a business bank account. Have my fellow readers faced a similar legal situation or know anything about it?"

Illegals Kill 25 Americans Every Day

That's one reason I have to laugh everytime a dittohead pops a vein about how illegal aliens are criminals just as bad as murders and rapists.

The illegal status is one issue, but the bigger problem is the crime represented by the illegal population.

On average, illegal immigrants kill 25 American citizens every day. That's more than soldiers dying in Iraq - that's 12-14 times the number of people dead since 9/11 than died on 9/11.

So, what's really a bigger problem, terrorism or illegal immigration?

Or are 9,000 deaths a year not really a problem worth 'popping a vein' over? Maybe when it happens to your family the focus will change.
