Do you support tax evasion if the guy dumping your garbage at night hires illegals? Do you think every time I buy a burrito or have someone dump my garbage that "looks" Mexican, I should ask for their papers?

Your referred to hiring a couple of cleaners.

If you hired somone to clean your home, and your paying them, they got to fill out one of them nice and dandy tax forms. I have a cleaning lady, and yes, I got her ID. Its the same exact situation as somone who hires a nanny, and doesn't check for tax purposes (I.E. the equivalent of paying under the table).

I'm going to assume your "burrito" remark was meant literally not as a figure of speech.

Also, if you hire somone to dump your garbage and they use illegals, yes you can get in trouble (see Wal-Mart, hiring a firm to clean the store that employed illegal aliens).

When I use contractors to do work for me, I do verify to make sure that if they sub-contract it out, its not going to illegal aliens.

My immigrant employees aren't illegals, and they pay taxes, I don't think its to much to expect others to do the same.

As far as our office cleaners I hope too they are doing the legal and right thing as you and I are but frankly in our office we do not check on each of of clients, vendors or companies to verify each of their employees are legal.
