    Chain migration then sets in.
    In the UK the gov will have to support part of that.
    In the USA that's more city and state services. Thats the "free healthcare"/education/services the USA has to pay for.

    Nobody wants to fix it.
    One side of politics sees migrants who get citizenship as future voters who will be thankful for getting instant citizenship approved.
    Chain migration is then approved for more more voters/citizens who fully understand who let them enter the USA.

    Another side of politics see lower cost workers who won't be interested in a union, can ask for more wages and who can be asked to return to their own nations if they every report problems.

    The result is large legal movements of average and below average people with not real needed skills moving into a nation.
    Citizenship is then granted for party political reasons.

    The legal system is set up to allow an ad for a job to run and run so nobody in the USA will on average see such an ad in "print"/"online".
    The company can then show it really tried hard to get a US worker, with the needed number of "ads" placed over time.
    In local newspapers with a readership not often related in any way to the job offered.
    Wait a while and place more ads. Show the gov the ads did not work. The number of times the ad was printed and average reader numbers seeing the ad.

    No ability to find anyone in the USA as the ad placement proved.
    Bring in a worker from another nation at a lower wage and who will not want join a union, no have as many rights.

    Its all in the legal ability to create an ad that lists the needed work and that few people with the skills will ever find.
    To have that ad stay in place for a long time and then to show the gov that that job can never be filled by anyone in the USA.
    A way around any gov regulations :) The skilled US worker never have a chance to find the "hidden" local print ad.

    Re "they don't perform well in an ER environment"
    Why should any nation have to accept doctors who cant learn and who cant study?
    Why could not see a very different set of people everyday in the ER and put their education to some use?
    Thats the way that sorts out the professionals. Peer review and constant education and learning.
    The good quality doctors can do all that. People who cant need to look for another profession.
    A nurses with advanced diagnostic equipment is not a doctor.
    That is a way to sort people entering a hospital and to get some basic information ready for the medical experts.

    After all the study and questions and exams and interview questions to get the "big brand" job.
    Why would the smartest workers want to carry around another brands average consumer smart phone products?
    Its the dream tech job and they don't want to use their own brands products?
    Make using the company internal project smart phone fun and different.
    More ram, more cpu, more resolution. More camera ability due to so many different lens additions.
    Mandate it internally as a company smart phone project that will be released to 3 years but it needs internal testing.
    A smart phone that is company secure used by most workers.
    Never get locked out of your own company on your own company smart phone.... real crypto too, with the company having the only keys.

    Why do the workers not trust their own company products and feel the need to still "trust" a consumer smart phone when at work? That would be a good experiment.
    Who took the company smart phone, who still connects with another brands consumer smartphone at work when told not to?
    What do the best workers know about the company they work for that would always make them use an average consumer smart phone over the advanced "free" company product?

    Immigration places more work on US health care, pensions, jobs and education.
    All the results of chain immigration is not covered by one person doing an average job in the USA for a few years.
    Economic activity is generated by having educated workers who are loyal to the USA.
    Not loyal to their bank accounts and life back in their own nations.
    Not loyal to the next nation to accept them.
    Few nations can create the needed really "highly skilled workers" outside the USA.
    Why bring in below and average workers? To then spend tax payers money supporting them?
    The USA had decades to produce all the "highly skilled workers" it needed.

    The next step is very short term visa to work within one company in the USA.
    But working for the company in their own nation as the "brand" that pays their wage.
    So the worker is sent to the USA for months as an short term expert working on a project but never really becomes part of the US work force or a US company.
    They get the same pay as they did in their own country as the work is only on one project for weeks in the USA.
    Work in the USA is like an ocean liner.
    Physically in a very different part of the world.
    Same low pay as in the 2nd/3rd world nation as that is who they still work for.

    Send your doctors to medical school on merit.
    Graduate the best and only the best.
    Ensure anyone who wants to work in your nation as a medical doctor is a qualified professional.
    Everyone sits the same exams and has to pass the same exams to be approved.
    Stethoscope skills are part of the needed years of approved study.
    After years of hard work and study a doctor enters the profession.
    Review the work done by doctors and ensure peer review is done.

    The reason why that education is important is that not every condition is going to be the AI expected "pneumonia".
    Skill is needed to detect many other conditions and what the best treatment is.
