The lottery system is fundamentally flawed because it ignores real market needs. U.S. employers file petitions because they can’t find local talent, yet the government randomly decides who gets through. That’s inefficient. A better solution would be a points-based system like Canada or Australia use. Applicants are ranked based on education, experience, job offer details, and even adaptability factors. The highest scorers get visas. This ensures the U.S. brings in people who can contribute the most. The current random system wastes both employer resources and applicants’ lives. It’s time to modernize.
