re: Dude you are way too short on details to actually support your policy. Don't dude me. Illegal immigration is... illegal. It's illegal to employ illegal aliens. I am advocating enforcing the law... not a radical policy and supported by the vast majority of Americans (though obviously not the majority of UAE expatriates that enjoy the benefits of virtual slave labor). Would corps cut back on employees? Maybe, but not by the 10 million plus illegals working in this country. So it's a net plus for jobs for citizens and legals. Would corps have to pay higher wages? Almost certainly the wages at the low end, that haven't kept up with inflation, would increase. Can corps afford it? Certainly... they are earning record profits. If you run into problems you can always increase LEGAL immigration. I haven't mentioned the cost of social services for illegals. Right now you have chaos, not policy. And as a result you have people that work full time falling into poverty. Not the American dream. If you want a societal structure like Dubai, stay in Dubai. Most Americans believe the middle class is the backbone and strength of this country. What's bad for the middle class is bad for America.
