American Situation for foreigners
I have around three months living here in USA due I won a schoolarship. Most people who come to USA always want to stay here because there are more oportunities, life is better talking economically and in others ways. But the situation is really complicated because all foreigners students here when they finish their studies they must come back to their original countries because the government don't want to give employs to foreigners because the jobs are mainly for natives.
People who want to stay here (working) need to get the residence and the two only options are that a company take resposability for you and the company need to start a kind of judge to desmostrate that you are really important for the company (it is not commun but some times happen) and the other way is get married with an american citizen.
I have heard a lot of cases that some people pay to american people (in bad situation) to get married with them, with the only purpose to get the residence.
Furthermore, I have heard that a lot of foreigners students who delay their studies in order to don't back to their countries.
This is only that I have heard but I can't say that all is true.
If you have heard or know something different please, let me know.

Ops. Getting into trouble* Sorry. When a person can't go back to his country because his life is in risk, he can get political assylum granted.

There are no reasons.

Rules must be respected, and I didn't judge anyone. I wrote about his experience and I think it is an example about how people who do dishonest things end up getting into problems. There are reasons to break a country's law. If the USA has such immigration laws there must be a reason for that. One of them, it's because their priority is American citizens. There are also many Americans who struggle to get by. There are also many foreigners who have settled in America legally and have gotten the American nationality. Obviously, no country in the world can allow anyone who wants to live in its country to settle. Rules are rules. If people don't want to respect immigration laws, later on they will also find excuses to not respect traffic laws, etc.

Yes, Absolutely agree with you.
But you are from Colombia like me and you know how is the situation in Colombia and in other Latin American countries. I think that we can't judge people who did that because we don't know anything about their problems, Perhaps lack of study, opportunities, money, etc.
This is the name of the "el sueño americano". Bien para quien realmente lo necesite y pueda realizarlo.
