As long as we don't seriously go after employers, closing the borders and deporting illegals is not gong to solve the problem. The demand for cheap labor will still exist and desparate people will take extrodinary risks to meet the demand.
I completely agree. The employers are citizens of this nation. They ought to have a greater loyalty than a foreign national and even if they don't they ought to be held to a higher standard. Real prison time and serious financial consequences should be incurred. Plenty of people would love to open businesses to replace those criminals.
