That idea has all kinds of problems. There’s a substantial amount of investment in education necessary and even then, immigration still doesn’t counteract population ageing/shrinking. If you can read or have any well developed skill, you have no business falling victim to fake fears like this.
I hate to break it to you, but that’s not for lack of skilled applicants. Companies leave those positions open so they can say they’re trying to hire, just so they get more work out of you.
Source: I manage about 110 engineers in a global company. We’re always 'hiring '.
I think you were downvoted just for saying something ppl don’t like. Half the jobs posted out there don’t actually exist tho, posting ads is also used as cheap marketing to seem like the company is growing and healthy, positions that are posted for legal reasons and aren’t really open, etc., your reason included.
What I am seeing is that the more “intelligent” employer use the great replacement to get rid of unwanted people and WFH to attract good people that they could not normally have for a miriad of reasons.

No, they aren’t. If you’re so easily replaceable then you’re worthless anyway.
Everyone is easily replaced. You’re not some unique snowflake.
Skilled workers are not easily replaced. I am a programmer and we regularly have job postings open for over a year at my work.

So they’re wasting time I could spend actually programming so I can interview people they don’t plan on hiring, got it.
If you’re really struggling, post the link to the job posting, and I’ll see if I can’t recommend a few good devs.
I mean, yeah? It doesn’t take a year to find devs. Unless you’re using some ridiculously rare stack, or your posted salary is way below market.
Plus, if a position is open for a year, you don’t need it. Apparently.

I would be if I was the one that controlled it. But we’re a company of like 60k people. I’m not setting policy.

From what I am seeing does not seems true.
