Here is why: if you are hiring illegals then you are running a criminal operation. So if you want to be a criminal ring leader then by all means sleep well at night.
So your logic would dictate that if an employee lost his license without your knowledge and drove a company truck, you would be operating a criminal ring?
By putting the responsibility (and punishments) on the employer, government is increasing barriers to doing business in this country. I thought conservatives were opposed to government mandates on businesses.
