If you can't figure that out it's because you don't want to...I can't help you there.

Because it will move millions of people now living underground into daylight. Provided effective enforcement everybody has an incentive to work within the rules. Employers don't have to go to the black market for cheap labor and people who want jobs here can get them without breaking our laws. After their done working they'll go home. They won't become citizens, they won't vote, they won't be anybody's constituency.
