Child labor laws
minimum wage
regulating number of work hours.
regulating wages by sex or race.
regulating how much water your toilet needs to flush.
Outlawing incandescent light bulbs
CAFE standards
Requiring a permit to clear blackberries
Requiring a permit to collect rain water
Regulating who you can and can’t hire
etc.
And you equate those things with requiring businesses to not break our immigration laws by hiring illegals?
The last one on my list:
Regulating who you can and can’t hire.
As far as I’m concerned, for a particular person, it may be illegal to be here, and illegal to work here. But I see it as on you. An employer should not need to be required to determine citizenship status of the people they hire.
Interestingly, this would not be an issue if the government didn’t give free money and free stuff away.
