I think if you fine any business or person that has Illegal Alien employees $10,000 per head and give the owner 1 month in jail per head on a first offence, the problem would solve it's self..... or do you think people would risk those penalties to hire an Illegal?
It depends on our consumerism. If we reward companies who hire illegals through our consumption of their goods; they'll continue to try to thwart the law. If there's money to be made, someone will try making it.
If you think people would not hire Illegal Aliens with those penalties as law, do you think Illegal Aliens would still come to this country with no work available?
If we completely stopped rewarding illegal labor, they would eventually stop coming over. It won't be a step potential mind you. But so long as they can get work, they'll continue to come over. And so long as we consume the products of their labor as voraciously as we do, there will be jobs for them here.
