 It’s bc they get lumped in the same bucket . I’d be pissed too 
 Imagine there's people standing in long ass lines (several years on average to get a permanent residency), gambling years of their life and family future in a highly bureacratic and unpredictable process. And then someone cuts the line...

The legal immigration system is royally fucked up and has zero vision or aim. I suspect that its main point is to channel migrants towards the illegal crossings, money for cartels and cheap slave-like labor inside.

Overseeing it being dismantled would be my dream job. I've seen so many lifes harmed by that system ☠️ 
 Yeah our legal immigration system is a shit show for sure. It starts there. Gotta fix that too. 
 Luckily it was created by humans and thus it can be fixed by humans
