Another idea I think would help:
Abolish the federal income tax system, and replace it with the Fair Tax.
Neil Boortz has just written a book on this.
It would not only bring home jobs to America, it would help eliminate the need for hiring illegals under the table.
Our businesses are overtaxed...heck we're all overtaxed. The incentive for hiring illegals under the table would disappear, if there was no income tax, FICA, Medicare withholdings, etc.

I agree, with one more caveat. Boortz said on C-span that the poor would get a tax prebate at the beginning of every month. We would HAVE to have a way to making sure this only went to people living here legally.
