The way to fight illegal immigration would be to go after the businesses and fine them more than the slap on the wrist they get now.  The idea of making all 11 million illegal immigrants legal is pure idiotic.  It was done under Reagan and that didn't solve anything.  Most of the thinking seems to just try and patch the problem rather than address it with actual solutions.  Crying that it is unfair to break families apart when they are breaking the law is about as dumb as fighting the war on drugs.


Funny but I don't see a lot of "legal" american willing to do the jobs most illegal immigrants do.

I guess they are too busy crying about illegal immigration to go look out for jobs......

I'd actually blame it more on the farm lobby convincing congress to add farm work to the minimium wage exemption for no good reason.

Why take a job that pays less then unemployment or welfare?

Aside from which, if no "legal" americans were willing to do said jobs, then companies would make sure the immigrants get here via legal work visas or by an increase in legal immigration.
