It took a lot of time and money for me to finally get to live with my American wife. If people are skirting around those requirements, I don't really have much sympathy for them.
Large, important parts of the US economy is dependent on undocumented and seasonal immigrants. For example the agricultural industry as a whole would be screwed without their cheap labour.
OK it's not a nice situation to have, but with capitalism it's a case of "make the worst goods possible, at the lowest wages possible, selling for the highest price possible" and the primary producers get royally screwed.
