Yes immigrants are exploited -- but only because they have to make a living in the meantime and support their families.
You don't need a valid master's degree to open up a restaurant, start a business, etc. You don't even need real skills. Sure, if someone studied medicine in Aruba, I'd kind of prefer they at least be able to pass the USMLE or study med school in the US before practicing medicine on me. American degrees are some of the most highly valued degrees in the world for a good reason.
