I understand. The President thinks these are all jobs that Americans don't
want to do.
Maybe he's right. Some folks would rather bitch about not having work
because they want to shower before work, not after.

I firmly believe that any country has the right and responsibility to
control its borders and allow, or disallow, entrance by anyone to said
country on any grounds that it sees fit. The US situation is rather
interesting from the outsider's viewpoint because the blindingly
obvious solution seems to be ignored.

You build fences and spend huge sums of national treasury trying to
catch and deport illegals.....which is the proper thing to do, but you
seem to ignore an important factor.

That factor is that there is a market for illegal labour.

I am astounded that there are not large and punative fines in place
for the employers of illegal workers. I am not talking about a slap on
the wrist, I am talking about a fine that would put the employer out
of business. I think that every employer has the duty and
responsibility to ensure that the person he/she is hiring is legally
entitled to work in the country. To that end, it amazes me that
punitive fines are not in place.

If a farmer knew that hiring one illegal worker could net him a fine
so punative that it would cause him to lose his farm [yes....such
fines should be in place], he would think long and hard before hiring
someone without careful scrutiny first. This would dry up the job
market for illegals and they would stop coming to the country.

This move would also reward those people that do emmigrate to the US
by legal means by leaving those jobs available for them.

Thoughts?
