"I DO have an objection to forcing business people to become de facto immigration and law enforcement officials, without pay."

Isn't it what they should be doing anyway, just obeying current laws on the books? What's so damn difficult about requiring an employer to ensure that a hire is a CITIZEN?

That fact is, in their cheap labor greed, they don't really give a damn if they follow the law or not. Especially since they know that nothing will happen to THEM, there is no penalty that they will pay that makes it not worth it.

Re: Similarly, I don't mind at all if ordinary citizens CHOOSE to help guard the Border, or walk around with concealed weapons on their city streets.

Likewise, you probably don't mind at all if cash-strapped people start printing their own rolls of $100 notes in their utility rooms, now do you? Think of them as sustaining the US economy/GDP growth and helping US businesses....
