Why doesn't the government simply offer legal immigration for anyone for $70k?
Minimal paperwork - just wire over $70k and we send you a passport with your name on and a complimentary welcome pack for whichever city you decide to move to.

The problem with making that number too low is that people will be encouraged to get loans and whatnot and how does the government prevents small folk from getting exploited? Even without this, today, people are in slave-like situations already. Sure, the government can just keep out of this and make the libertarian dream come true, but there are usually other consequences (human trafficking, violence, etc) that will cost the government (more? less? I doubt there are studies about this).
