Uhhh... how do you propose to gain the convictions needed to make any sort of "get tough on employers" policy work?

Juries to date have rarely convicted.

Juries have rarely convicted because there was no legal alternative to the worker without closing the company down.
When there IS a legal alternative, I believe you will see more convictions.
Although as I previously stated, if they can't do it now I don't see how they are going to do it then.

"Do you know how many employers were convicted for hiring illegal immigrants?"

I'll bite. How many?

"Juries to date have rarely convicted."

Is there a source for court cases? I assume you know. Please provide links.
