Perhaps some sort of migrant worker program , come to the US for a short stay , leave when the seasonal work is done , take your pay back to your home country, brings much needed money there, I think if the problems of abusing that sort of system could be worked out it could benefit all parties, but then it works out better politically just to be very non selective as to who comes into our country
