Illegal aliens are the bugs. Companies that hire them are the porch light. You can stand outside swatting at bugs all night, or you can turn off the porch light!

The New York Times has a pretty good article about this:

U.S. Accuses Meat Processor of Recruiting Illegal Workers

True, there are two parties interested in the illegal alien labor, they themselves and the corporations and small businesses employing them. Oh, and politicians pandering to them too.

In this respect, the illegal aliens' behavior is totally predictable like in your analogy. It's easier to turn off the lights than deal with all the bugs.
