Don't you think that's rewarding the law breaking illegals while screwing those that actually have sought the legal way to gain citizenship.
What bothers me most is the way we set such amazingly strict guidlines towards countries that may produce exceptional productive citizens (many european or asian nations for example) while we let all the drug pushing columbians or guatamalans fly by.
It's just getting pathetic

I considered that, as others have. But maintaining immigration quotas, and not exceeding them, is importatnt, as well. If 500 thousand illegals come in and we decrease the allowed quota by 500 thousand to maintain the quota, then new immigrants from Columbia, as you mentioned, and France, Somolia, Haiti, Germany, Uganda, Russia, etc will not be allowed to come here. It's a trade off until the problem is solved.
