Nice logic. If i sold drugs out of my house, it would be illegal, but the only way I could be profitable at it is breaking the law, so I should be allowed to break the law?

Come on man, if the only way they can stay in business is by breaking the law, they shouldn't be in business.

Also, you just contradicted yourself. 

First you say:

There are already such fines: up to 2k per illegal immigrant employed. If it's the second time they catch them, it's up to 5k. For the third and any additional event, the employer can get fined up to 10k per illegal immigrant. On top of that, they also get fined up to 1k per illegal immigrant employed.

Then you say:

The problem is those laws are un-enforceable.

Which one is it?

How can laws that are un-enforceable have an economic impact on a business that breaks them?

 

And herein lies the heart of the issue: fines, jail, etc won't do jack as these kind of laws are essencially unenforceable without a public spending commitment the governments can't afford. 

You either invest on their countries so they don't need to come to your country or legalise everyone. There's no other way.
