Even if qualification-related criteria are imposed, there are more than enough people who want to move from the developing world to the developed world to go around.

The idea that there is a global shortage of good immigrants and a battle to lure the best ones is something that I used to buy into but after looking at some facts and numbers it's clearly not true.

There are all sorts of places around the world right now that are getting guilt-tripped to not implement policy or law X, Y or Z because they will supposedly scare off or at least displease immigrants, therefore handicapping their economic future. Allegedly.

That's all bunk.
