Why are cars made with bumpers that can be pushed during a crash?

For along time bumpers have been made to protect the bodywork of a car in the event of low speed collision, such as at stops or traffic lights. Bumpers are relatively cheap compared to body sections of cars, and often prevent a lot of body damage. In a high speed collision it doesn't matter whether you have bumpers or not, lots of bodywork will be wrecked.
