You should try immigrating to one of the EU countries... I tried helping a senior programmer friend. No amount of experience, proof or whatever else could change the government's stance - they don't have an employer so they surely must be looking to exploit the social system - bye.

it's good in a way, allowing immigrants to leave their country of origin... deprives a country of its talent.

instead of making their own country great another country is benefiting from their talent.

and it's a self reinforcing system.
