If no one employed illegal workers, then there would be no good reason to come here.

Partly true, and I have commented time and again that the the employers should be locked up.

But that still wouldn't stop the influx as long as people can obtain false IDs, etc.

I blame no one, but neither do I place a mantle of goodness around them. They're people. Their actions may be understood in relation to their needs, but that doesn't mean they our needs and theirs match.

A mantle of goodness?? (none / 0) (#39)

What the hell is that??  If they are human beings, no more or no less, then they are just as good as they rest of us.

Also, locking up employers will do nothing, making them PAY will.  As long as employers in these businesses don't want to pay Americans a livable American wage, well, the tide will keep coming.  

It's called greed.  And that's unfettered capitalism.
