It's a combination of factors

1. India is poor but not too poor

2. It has a huge population

3. A lot of upper class Indians already have family in the US

Of course, it is not clear why any of this should matter. Why should it be capped by country (as opposed to continent, zipcode or planet?)

IMHO it matters because of the "D" word ... diversity

Considering that the people who have the easiest time with this system are from Europe/Canada or Australia maybe the D word ought to be discrimination
