its insane to me that the us doesnt moneyball migration we could take in huge quantities of revenue AND an arbitrary number of exceptionally-capable immigrants with the right immigration permit auction mechanism

One problem is age. Young people won't come because they don't have enough money. OTOH, if you're old, live in a shithole country and managed to accumulate enough savings, you blow then on the US citizenship and then welfare+Medicare is a great deal.
