Big Mach,

That sounds reasonable enough. But I think you underestimate the authority of US immigration officers. If you told them (or they otherwise found out) that you were essentially using the visa to give youself permanent residency, they would put a stop to it one way or another.

I have personally had a work visa revoked by an immigration officer when he realized I had "creatively" applied for a visa. Nothing illegal, just my liberal interpretation of the law.

If you don't believe me, just ask immigration on your next trip to the US.
