re: Come on, you left out "slightly fewer employees".

Come on, read the whole post, I said:

As to jobs being eliminated, I doubt very much that it would equal the 10-20 million illegals currently in the country.

re: We'd all pay more for stuff, and its not even clear if the increased prices would eliminate all of the theoretical increased wages. If the low end of the scale gets a 10% raise, but fruits, veggies and meat go up by 12%, and there are less jobs, not sure you've really accomplished anything.

Idiotic. Unless the cost of something is 100% labor then the price of that item is not going up dollar for dollar with a cost of labor increase.

re: Do you know anyone that actually wants a job held by an illegal, or is this all theoretical discussion?

Lots of people do... at the right wages.
