Having gone through skill based immigration to the US, that's to a significant degree because the current system actually isn't very good.

H1B is overcrowded every year, and instead of going by qualification or benefit to US, it goes via lottery.

With EB5, if you can call that "skill based", it's about the amount of money you can invest in things that are scams to a significant degree
