It was interesting enough for your to read and comment, though.

Good work in clarifying your post. In reality, I think we agree more than disagree. Most emplyers are not the problems, but unfortunately there is a minority, yet still sizeable number that are.

I want to reward people acting in compliance with the law, that includes emplyers and immigrants. American businesses that break the law and contribute to the problem are doing so to make a buck and compete on an unfair basis with law abiding people. They are the ones that need to pay.

The system for verification that I sugested is to take away any excuse when someone hires an illegal.

In any event, when you write in a way moe like your later post, rather than the former, you sound a lot more reasonable.

“Why do you think employers hire illegal immigrants?”

Business have only one motivation.

Profit.

You know that from your high school economics and business classes.

If not, that was repeated in BUS 1001, ECON 1001, and MAN 2001.

Business acts to maximize profit by illegal hiring practices.

If the penalty for illegal hiring were greater than the profit, the practice would end.

And, if the ‘migratory worker’ is as a group, an unreliable criminal element, why are businesses hiring them and putting their profits and assets at risk?

When the ‘philosophy’ of the right is applied to the business, instead of the individual, the rightist philosophy becomes fascist instantly.

Burn the illegal employer at the stake!

Storm the Board Room!

Death to CEOs!

lol

Employers don’t need any help finding illegal employees.

Illegal employees only have illegal employees.

LOL!

And illegal employers are good at finding NEW illegal employees. Just hire your illegal employee’s cousin, brother, uncle, aunt …

You just refuse to join the real world.

If my mind isn’t in the gutter, my language will be.

Doug has no understanding of the normal hiring practices of law abiding employers.

He thinks the most complicated, obtuse, and twisted solution would be best.

Those who honor the law, should be rewarded, not punished.

Those weasels that intentionally hire the illegal worker is an illegal, criminal employer.

No illegal employers means no illegal employees.

Thanks again for yet another inane post totally foreign to the topic at hand. Do you ever stop and think prior to clicking on the ‘Submit Comment’ tab?

Yes, in many (most) cases it has more to do with work ethic than money.

Do not misconstrue my post as being anti-American worker. If anything, I believe American workers have progressed beyond doing menial work for minimum wage. Thus the need for hard working immigrants to fulfill the jobs hard working Americans long ago quit doing.

However, just recently, The SSA was sued for sending out what are called “no match” letters that tell employers that a SS number doesn’t match the name. So how the heck are we going to enforce the law if the ACLU types are doing all they can to stop the law from being enforced?
