BIIINNNGGGOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Most of the illegals will still want to work under the table for cash and not go into this system. Without strict employer oversight, the system will just add millions and millions more lower wage people all while the same illegals want to work for cash and the businesses look to evade taxes.
Way to go George!
Employer oversight will not work, we do not have the man power to apprehend all the illegals nor keep up with employers who do not comply. If we try to make the employer responsible it will be an undue burden on honest employers and the dishonest employers will continue to cheat. They will cheat not only by hiring illegals, but due to their lower labor cost, they will be unfair competition for those businesses that follow the law.
Wait, that's what's happening now....
Good points and one other factor that needs to be investigated is to what degree is there massive welfare fraud in that community. Saw an old FR thread about a fake ID ring that had produced millions of fake ID's for Mexicans here in the states. Don't think they were used to get library cards.....I wonder just how easy is it to get benefits in multiple names? If it's easy as I think it is this whole scam is a beautiful deal for many businesses........get rid of Americans, evade taxes and pay workers minimal wages knowing it's pocket change compared to what they're soaking taxpayers for.
