As long as we have a minimum wage, illegal immigrant labor is going to be a problem and we will all pay higher prices for just about everything. That employers will violate the law to hire illegals shows that the minimum wage is too high. Supply and demand works. Artificial controls usually do not.

No, they do not work. But they do win elections, and that's the name of the game.
