Supply (of labor) = Demand (of labor) at the equilibrium (market) price. If you can't find anyone to hire, raise your wages

Which raises the cost of the product or service.

I'll never understand your alls hatred at small businesses that produce good products and services.

It's almost akin to the animus liberal democrats have toward business.

Price is determined by supply and demand.

I don't hate business. In fact there is nothing better than free unmanipulated markets to properly allocate goods and services. I hate artifical market manipulation.

Someone must benefit from the inflated prices and those who do will be the workers. As for the produce industry, the employer can't raise his prices too much so will need to take less profit because the farmers compete with imports.

It's not a bad thing when the poorest become less poor, even if it's at the expense of the better off, when it happens in a fair capitalist free market manner that abides a natural relationship between employer and employee. Bringing in non-Americans to replace your employees because you can pay them less is not a natural relationship between employer and employee...the citizen worker is getting the shaft.

Even if inflation occurs, government expenditures would definitely decrease and quality of life would increase for all citizens.

Busineesses enjoy extra profits from illegal labor but impose costs, both financial and otherwise, on everyone else.

(1) Illegals cost taxpayers in government expenditure far in excess of any taxes they generate.

(2) Illegals businesses hire have children who become American citizens and change the Nation's demographic destiny.

(3) Once the illegal that businesses hire ages beyond the capacity to perform manual labor he becomes a burden on the taxpayer and society, because he will not return to Mexico. The employer who profited shunts that cost onto society.

(4) The FBI conveniently doesn't compile crime statistics on perpetrators that identify hispanics or illegals. Instead they are classified as "white". We don't know how much crime they commit. However, there is no particular scarcity of illegals in prisons, suggesting that the illegals are responsible for more than their share of crime.

So, these are just a few of the many reasons that we all object to the employment of illegals. Now do you understand, Dane?

I want these businesses that produce good products and services to not violate federal immigration laws by hiring illegal alien lawbreakers.

At least you have finally offered an excuse for your support of illegal immigration. Fencing stolen goods also provides cheaper costs- maybe supporting property crime can be the next big idea for the Open Border Lobby if you get your wish and the "guest worker" amnesty passes.

You're so full of crap. No one here has any hatred of small businesses that produce good products and services. What we have is anger at business who break the law and engage in unfair business practices. We hate businesses whose unfair business practices and lawbreaking may result it larger profits for the business owner, and rarely lower prices to the consumer, that end up passing the costs on to the taxpayer and those who live in communities which are inundated by criminal invaders. And most of our hatred lies in those who aid and abet these lawbreaking invaders in coming across our borders and staying here - people like you who enable and defend the criminal invaders while pretending to be a conservative or a Republican.
