It's called Merit Based Immigration. Every other country has this because a it provides IMMEDIATE economic benefits.

Economic growth is tied largely to population growth. You need more consumers to create more producers and vice versa. All of these lead to massive economic growth.

Births over deaths in the US right now are not causing a huge amount of population growth right now. This is the role of immigration. The supplement the population growth necessary for economic growth.

Immigration is ENTIRELY self serving but it HAS to be controlled. It's the difference, once again, between the US and other countries where other countries CONTROL their immigration, having significantly less people approved than the US.
