Look Einstein, it is a 90% probability that if you hire a contractor in the South or Southwest he is going to be using illegals. I know it, Sinkspur knows it and that paragon of Conservative values Tom Tancredo knows. He didn't ask, I didn't ask and I am sure Sinkspur didn't ask since it was not our legal responsibility to do so.

Woud fall under this category:
"An employer has constructive knowledge that an employee is an illegal unauthorized worker if a reasonable person would infer it from the facts.(a)
Constructive knowledge constituting a violation of federal law has been found where
(3) the employer acts with reckless disregard for the legal consequences of permitting a third party to provide or introduce an illegal alien into the employer’s work force.(b) Knowledge cannot be inferred solely on the basis of an individual’s accent or foreign appearance. Actual specific knowledge is not required. For example, a newspaper article stating that ballrooms depend on an illegal alien workforce of dance hostesses was held by the courts to be a reasonable ground for suspicion that unlawful conduct had occurred.(c)
(a)8 CFR 274a.1(l).
(b)8 CFR 274a.1(l)(1).
