It depends which city in Morocco Leigh. Most are living the country life. Her husband is from a smaller city. Lisa lives in a big city and prosperous city. Lisa never said who paid the immigration bill. Unless you know who they chose as the 'Choice of agent" you would not know this info if her or Simo paid the bill. You can pay this bill on-line so either one of them could have paid. Jobs are not stable in Morocco and to hold on to a job in this country you have to almost be treated like an animal and slavery with the bosses there. They take advantage of the help and work these men with long hours to keep payroll to a minimum since they pay a flat fee per month having barely any family time. They get an off day, to be called back into work. They don't have laws to govern and protect people's rights. If you say anything to the bosses they fire you and say you are talking back. Men come home tired, women are fighting with them because they do not have time with their husband's. Men are made to fully support the wife as she can spend ALL her money on herself, and it's her choice to spend her wages on the household. You wonder why these men are interested in other women outside their culture. It's not always for a green card. They make $200-400 a month. Living expenses are not so cheap in Morocco. How can a man provide for a family on these wages? They can not and is why they are forced to ask themselves if marrying a woman outside their culture is in their best interest.
