"no u cant just live there forever, u cant just wake into a country and get a work visa, u need to either marry or an american or get an american company to apply for one for u."

"but it's the ever elusive green card that allows you to live in the states and work at ANY profession that will take you 6 to 10 years to obtain...if you're lucky"

Not true in both cases. Sposorship certainly helps but isn't necessary. Opening your own business and employing some Americans would also help. Having skills that are in demand would also be a big asset. A green card can be obtained in 6 months.

Go see a professional immigration lawyer and they will get you squared away with the paperwork you need.
