I've legally gone through this process in at least 5 countries and the US was the most expensive, but far from the worst.
In other words, completely inaccessible to many people who would like a better life and are willing to work but lack opportunities in their native country.
Just because it was achievable for you doesn't mean it is achievable for everyone.
And it's perfectly normal that the country where the most people want to immigrate to will also have higher barriers.
In my country, I've not heard a lot of people expressing the wish to visit, let alone immigrate to the US for quite some time now.
And as a reminder of what country we're all talking about here, that'd be the one with the highest number of school shootings in the world, and the least political action and drive to do anything material about it, because, you know, emotional neanderthals gotta have their guns.
