Ukrain immigrants

If the US starts to take in refugees from Ukraine the inevitable comparison between those crossing the southern border will become an issue of race. This will distort the benefits that Ukrainians bring with them. Ukraine is a large European country with over 40 million highly educated people, 70% of whom have secondary or higher education. The reputation of Ukraine's workforce as highly skilled and sought after is the product of the educational system intensely focused on technical and scientific disciplines. This is what is needed in today's work force and it is called merit based immigration. Canada has used this system since 1967.
