Well, those companies that depend on mostly illegals as their customers will certainly go under unless they can attract some legal customers. Those companies that are not efficient and have to have so called cheap illegal Mexican scab labor to stay competitive will certainly go under. Those same scumbag American companies that determined the absolute lowest wage that illegal Mexican scabs would work for and which then became the prevailing wage at those companies will have to do the same thing again with legal American workers, find that lowest wage that legal Americans will work for. We're not talking about wages that an American can buy an SUV on, either, but wages that an American worker can at least live on.
