When congress created these laws they just fundamentally misunderstood the astronomical demand there was to enter the country. There is so much financial incentive to bring people in, for laborers, for companies looking to push wages down, and for politicians who stand to gain from additional votes, that any route to do so is bound to be abused any way it possibly can be.
