Japan is very good at this. They’re essentially like “You got someone willing to pay you? Cool, come on in.” Then after 5 years you can (if you want) naturalize, and after 10 you can get permanent residency.

No random nation based limits like the US somehow has.

Growing the economy is no longer an option for the US, we need to worry about managing our inevitable decline and likely collapse.
