OK, but explain why is it my (being an employer myself) responsibility to detect illegal aliens?

Do you feel the same way when you have to check someone's ID to make sure they are old enough to work? How about when a trucking service makes sure that the drivers have the appropiate license.

The employer is not taking over the job of law enforcement and it is not clear how this spin got started.

All the employer is required to do is make sure that the applicant is eligible to work.

This shouldn't be news to you - if you apply for any job you will have to fill out an I-9 which requires two forms of ID.

Yeah I look at his card it sez birth date such and and such, some simple math and I've got it figured out. However if the ID he give me turns out to be false I am not fined.

Not so with the little social security crap they are pushing on us. The government is asking employers to verify documents now. It may not sound like much to you but it is added crap on my workload because the government can't figure out how to stop folks from crossing the border.

And like I showed in another post today it is just that little bit extra and then in a year or two it is a brief history and a picture. And then maybe a thumbprint and of course DNA testing.

And like I pointed out in another post if he above sounds far fetched consider that 50 years ago my Grandfather smoked in his grocery store while waiting on customers and walked around town with a gun on his hip legally, and no one thought anything about it. If he were alive today he could end up in Federal Prison for doing such.

But see all of that Freedom disappeared just a little at a time, and just this one little bit more won't hurt anything right?

Or do you not believe in limited-government either?
