But the entire world wants to go to the US, Germany is not that attractive.
The population is getting older and they need more young people in order to support their standards of living and to care for the ageing population. So either they get more people and house them somehow, or they will have to accept that there won't be enough working people to support the country with their work. Another option, and I'm being sarcastic here, is to destroy the healthcare system like the Conservative government is doing in the UK and hope that eventually life expectancy will drop.

Germany is attractive for all those for whom a US visa is out of reach, a.k.a. almost everyone.
Compared to US visas, it's a walk in the park.
>Streamlining this system and lowering the requirements for a skilled visa won’t hurt anybody
It will defiantly hurt the housing market because Germany doesn't build enough.
