Don't forget that every healthcare practitioner the West imports - I'm sorry "encourages to immigrate" - they remove a healthcare practitioner from a country that educated them, trained them, invested in their residence/practicum/rotations, and almost certainly needs them more than the West.

After all, why grow your own capacity to train and retain health care practitioners, when you can just take the non-Western world's instead?

Just say every productive young person. West has decided to not have babies of its own and instead just import them from poorer parts of the world. As an immigrant myself, I'd say it is a good deal for the West and those immigrants, but will need homogeneous cultures to be open to cultural changes.
