Yes, this. Moreover there is another aspect. Refugees are people rejected by their home country. Yes, many countries have insular in groups and arbitrary and capricious decision-making. So not every individual rejected ‘deserves’ it. But it’s like trying to found a company and only accepting fired or laid off employees of other companies. The same argument applies—companies can for non merit based or random reasons fire or lay off someone. But if you measured the average capabilities or performance of this ‘reject’ pool, odds are it will underperform compared to the greater population.
Programs like L1/H1B are the inverse. The top workers of a source country are more likely to be the ones offered these deals.
