Immigrants tend to come from crappy or at least crappier countries....
...why do you think they immigrate.
Like is it some major puzzle to you why the US is no longer swamped by Irish immigrants? Well its because Ireland politically stabilized and became a first world country. Rather than the famine scarred poverty filled craphole wracked by political violence it used to be about a century ago.
So you seem to be thinking you're making a point here? Pointing out something notable?
When actually no you're really not at all. You're doing the equivalent of pointing out that rain is wet, and acting like this is alarming late breaking news.
"The U.S., the U.K., France and a myriad of similar countries all are pushed to the brink by the problems these refugees bring on top of the existing ones."
The UK and France may think they are, but really they're fine. The US is completely fine and KNOWS it because the US has been doing this literal identical song and dance for over 150 years a million times over with countless different peoples and places of origin.
Your very own Irish ass would not be here if this was not the case. In fact if I recall right and you're in Massachussetts, try throwing a rock and see if you don't hit someone for which this would also be true.
Or did you imagine Ireland in the 1800's was a land of stately manors, jolly well fed well landed farmers, and cheery economic and political conditions.
