It is the fact that they are working that makes their presence here illegal.
Are we going to demand that they all pay back taxes on the under the table income? Are we going to require that they pay the hospitals and medical clinics where they were treated and where they had their children? These people are all going to be given defacto tax amnesty but no American citizen would be given such a free ride.
American citizens who don't pay their taxes are thrown in jail as an example to others. How many illegal aliens who have dodged their tax obligations have ever gone to jail or been ordered to pay fines and back taxes? I suspect very few, if any.

Clausewitz defined what is happening as an invasion... last I checked, invasion is an act of war...
