You proposed using "guest workers"

I do think there should be a guest worker program so that the people who do this work are legally here, and tracked. But we do need these people

Any employer who uses imported labor must be responsible for all expenses of such workers - including their medical expenses. Why should the taxpayers subsidize your cleaning lady?

You can't make a point by taking unrelated sentences of mine and trying to tie them together. I SAID - I only hire legal citizens, I don't care where they came from.
And, yes, I do think there should be a guest worker program. My "cleaning lady" is not full time, but if she was, I wouldn't be averse to having a "guest worker" that I was responsible for. If I brought one from Europe and called her an "au pair" no one would blink an eye. If I brought one from Mexico and called her a "guest worker", people like you would have fits.
