Exactly. If we slam the employers so hard they will never hire the illegals, and then cut off the welfare, the illegals will have no reason to come.

That's the answer right there. I would throw in a guest worker program for those few handfuls of illegals who actually are coming here to work jobs that might be hard to fill. Then they can be background checked and given health screens and returned back to Mexico when their time is up for the job they worked but no one should be coming here illegally anymore.

The only jobs that are hard to fill with American workers are the ones that don't pay a living wage with decent health benefits. If you let some employers import foreign, slave laborers to do their work, for less than what an American would do it for, then all employers will demand the same privilege and claim the same hardships.

You let one group of employers bring in foreign, slave laborers and WE, the American Taxpayers, wind up picking up their tab for health benefits and the cost of policing the program. It will cost more to care for these slave laborers and to see they obey their visas than any benefit derived, by the U.S. Taxpayers, from their presence.

If employers can't pay enough to attract America workers they should get out of that business. That goes double for landscapers and lettuce growers! If Americans won't pay the price you say your product or service is worth than they, obviously, don't want those goods and services.

I don't care, if I never eat another salad, again. I want my country back!
