I'm talking about being paid a living wage w/benefits

Welfare recipients aren't interested/geographically situated to take advantage.

The guest worker program must not extend to those already in our country illegally but, to those who wish to come here legally. Slowly, illegals would self deport since they would be losing their jobs to legals.

Agree & I'm in favor of devising a system where they quickly self deport & using retinal scans/dna registration so they can't game the system &/or have their dependents remain here sapping freebies.

Make it conditional in order to receive welfare benefits. Although minimum wage may not be enough for many people with families, welfare could subsidize their income at a great savings to the taxpayer. Besides picking fruits and vegetables, there are also other types of work they can do (laborer, landscaper, etc)which would rule out the problem of their current geographical location.
