Do you want to go after small households that employ a housekeeper ?

Homeowners who employ illegal handymen or lawn care help ?

Or just big business ?

Rather than attack one class or the other of Americans, lets just deport those who have it coming. Begin to seriously enforce the law we have and the problem will move back home.

If you intend to target "big business", realize that all you are doing is bothering the biggest business, while business 4 and 5 on the list diversify into 10 businesses. If they diversify, they will be small enough to escape notice, so all you end up doing is punishing the current leader for leading, you dont impact the labor one bit.
The tough on illegals laws, or the tough on the employers of illegals laws, whichever you prefer, that Arizona and Oklahoma passed, which required MANDATORY e-verification of an employee's legal status, REMOVED the business license of repeat offender employers of illegals, and required PROOF of legal status to receive any social services, would seem to apply to ALL businesses, big or small.
