I live in a country with a high immigration rate, both legal and illegal, and our society shows the same symptoms as yours.
Racism, jokes, superiority complex, they do the jobs we don't want to, etc.
However, despite such symptoms, we still invest millions of dollars in their health care, for free; we give them free education and more.
It is my opinion that, even if my society also has the same symptoms as yours, exclusion from the system is not as strongly enforced as in yours.
But my point is that some US people think that their hate for immigrants is justified because [insert reason] and think that foreigners can't understand and etc, but nope. I know what it is to live in a country with high illegal immigration, I face it everyday.
But my society is not as nazi about it and I am happy for it. Despite the symptoms being there but we are working on them.
I am glad that some of you are not immigrant haters.
Lastly, I want to add something. Sometimes we associate certain negative adjectives to immigrants and to their entire culture, and doing so is full of prejudices, stupidity, immaturity, lack of information, false information, logical fallacies, and more.
Illegal immigration needs to be controlled, of course. However the negative aspects of it cannot be given to a whole culture.

That is different. You came to enforce your society on them, they are coming to become a part of it.
