I base that on the laws and regulations that the US has for immigration, vs the ones that countries like The UK, Germany, Japan, Canada and Australia have. There are navigable paths to US citizenship for people that don't have skills that are needed in the US. For many other countries you either have to be rich or skilled to get in. Poor people aren't welcome. Poor people aren't exactly welcome in the US either, but they can get in.

That's absolute nonsense. Most countries have similar paths to entry. They also have paths that support specific jobs that are required by the country - something the US does not. Finally, many of them have easy and clear paths to naturalisation - again something the US doesn't have.

Just because unskilled nationals make it into your country, it doesn't mean that immigration in your country is easier than other countries. Every right-winger moans about the same thing in every country you've listed...

homie im pretty sure the US government is being sued for violating those very immigration laws.

You're clearly out of your depth. Stop now before you say anything dumber

Edit: for those unaware the United States has one of the hardest paths to immigration/citizenship in the world.
