Illegal immigrants do not enrich cultures. Illegal immigrants are a serious problem.
Illegal immigrants live off government doles in welfare countries. They gobble up a huge part of the benefits meant for citizens of the host nation. Their presence in a locality or town makes crime rates shoot up. Eventually, the locality or the town becomes unliveable due to worsening law and order. This leads to the exodus of the law-abiding citizens from these areas and they become no-go zones even for the local police forces. Examples abound in European nations such as Malmo in Sweden or Birmingham in UK.
Illegal immigrants are a threat to the host nation’s culture and way of life.
