A guest worker program would solve the problems of aliens using social services illegally, and the inability to keep track of aliens. Give them an ID, keep track of them, and if they don't have an ID, throw the book at them and their enablers.

That seems so obvious to me that I scratch my head over why we haven't done it. There was a law passed a few years ago putting the onus on employers to verify citizenship and imposing penalties for hiring illegals. Don't know what happened to that but it doesn't seem to be in effect.

I hesitate to say this but will continue to have a problem as long as we grant automatic citizenship to anyone born here regardless of parentage. If we're going to amend the Constitution, I'd start there.
