<<< lower wages is less incentive to illegally cross the border. but then, eliminating the minimum wage wouldn't lower wages, it would only create more jobs.>>>

I can't tell you how silly this statement sounds - Getting rid of minimum wage won't lower wages - just magically create jobs. Me thinks a wider news coverage would be helpful. EITHER, there are incentives to get rid of the minimum wage rules so that wages can be lowered to a point that employers will hire - or the incentives are to bring in more illegal workers.
