These are not easy laws to enforce. If you do the calculations, what costs more; enforcing the laws to the fullest extend and catch every single illigal immigrant or letting some immigrants pass the border? I think Trumps budget is going to be a disaster if he want to catch all the illegal immigrants. It's easier and better for the economy to let them get a job and pay taxes.
Below is not a reply to something Runaway1956 said, but a generic reply to the people who are concerned about culture:
I simply don't understand the people who talked about these immigrants somehow destroying american culture. American culture is a plural of the cultures of the world as a country build on migration from the rest of the world. In my country people have the same complaint, but when I ask them what our culture is, they don't even know. If you want to protect your culture, it is not going to help much to be dismissive of strangers. They are not the problem. The problem is that people don't live out their cultural heritage anymore. If you don't care for your own culture by living the traditions, rituals and values. You don't need a stranger to destroy your culture.
