And there proved to be a failure of political will in enforcing new laws against employers.

And this is the real problem underlying this debate.

You are absolutely right.

Employers want cheap labor for themselves and the laws enforced against the competition.

I can not see the U.S. picking up 11,000,000 illegal aliens and shipping them back, and in addition, another 25,000,000 wives and kids. I think we are stuck with them. the only answer is to stem the tide of the new crop.

To do that, we need to kill the incentive for the migrants to come here.

Yes, they can double, triple or whatever penalty the government decides vs. employers, but that is comparable to current firearms laws which remain generally unenforced.
