It is not the point that E-verify takes 5 minutes or 10 seconds, it’s that it’s making employers enforcers, instead of security the border. Secure the border and then you don’t have to check.
And as the article in Forbes said, if you can’t hire peole legally, they will hire them illegally, now you are going to fine the employer, put them in jail, make them go out of business, more unemployment — great idea! (/sarc)
If I don’t pay my taxes I can also be subjected to interest, fines and possible jail time. So what if employers are also subjected to being fined or jailed for violating immigration laws?? Go cry me a river!
Forbes mag is just another apologist for the business community just like the Chamber of Commerce when it comes to illegal aliens.
