That’s the real answer to the immigration problem. Make illegals unhireable. Don’t just stop at civil fines, but start locking up the people that hire them. I hope you’re right that this is the direction things are going.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” |

It think they are only at the tip of the iceberg here. Companies hiring illegals that they can pay lower wages to and not have to pay taxes or benefits is MASSIVE in many industries. Two I can think of right off the top of my head are the restaurant and construction industries. Just wait until they find just how many illegals are employed by them, it's going to be mind boggling.

Thing is, the laws are there and have not been being enforced. Ever heard of form I9? Employers and employees have been faking or accepting fake documentation for years. All you really have to do is due diligence and enforce existing law. |
