Do two things and you will end the problem, punish and I mean really punish employers that employ illegals and deny illegals socail services (not emergency medical). My two cents and there is no damn reason these two things can't be done.

When the first soccer mom gets nailed for hiring day labor, you're going to have a PR disaster on your hands.

People are against illegal immigration in the same way that they're in favor of motherhood and against sin. It's a generically accepted ideal.

Doing what you describe would inconvenience the American public, and that will go over about as well as a brick balloon. Generic ideals tend to fall apart when unpleasant specifics come up.

Welcome to America, where everyone wants to go to heaven, and nobody wants to buy a ticket.

Punishment should fit the crime mom pays a $100 fine. No PR disaster here. Wal-mart pays a million dollar fine. No PR diaster there either. You asked for solutions I am giving you solutions that will work.
