If we legalize those already here, the employers will still seek out more illegals to continue paying low wages with no benefits.

and the newly legalized will be unemployed, have a 3-year permit to stay in the country, and will probably have access to welfare, unemployment, and other benefits. The worker who participates in the guest worker program actually makes himself less hireable.

Just a thought...
wouldn't the 3 year period give the earlier arrival the
advantage of having learned the language? That has to be
a tremendous leg-up on the totem because that individual
can serve as go-between for the two cultures. It also
means he would have a skill needed by potential employers.
Right now, the landscaping/lawncare business is a big one for the Mexican laborer. And at least one of them has to
be able to communicate fluently with the prospective customer.
