There are plenty of young people in other countries that would be happy to move here.

  Until those countries start seeing the same problem and say no.

    With a few draconian exceptions, immigration is up to individuals, not their native countries.

  Your government seems to want to make that as difficult as possible to do legally.

    Are you sure? “The United States is home to the highest number of immigrants in the world. An estimated 50.6 million people in the United States—a bit more than 15% of the total population of 331.4 million—were born in a foreign country.” https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/immigration-by-country https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/immigrati...

      I am very sure. The number of immigrants does not reflect the difficulty of the process and misrepresents the constituents of that group. If you break down your numbers by type of visa, you'll see that chain migration is a major factor (where someone applies for a resident visa as a family member of an existing resident or citizen). If you're a college educated engineer (the type of immigrant the US should be trying to attract) without any family already in the US, good luck to you.
