[QUOTE="TechGrrl, post: 730845, member: 4932"] Illegal immigration is a matter of supply and demand. Remove the demand, and the supply dries up. Make it illegal to hire, knowingly or unknowingly, anyone who is not authorized to be in this country. Expand the government web site where an employer can check the status of the person applying for the job. Make that check mandatory. Create an audit trail of the queries against that database by tax ID for the business, and the social security number of the applicant. For every employee found to be in violation of this, the employee gets deported, with every member of their family, regardless of citizenship status (i.e. kids born here of parents without proper authorization). -AND- the employer gets fined $10,000 for the first offense. Fine doubles for every subsequent offense. Hire five people without legal authorization to be here, and the fine for the fifth one is $160,000, and the total fine is $310,000 Even Tyson Chicken, Iowa Beef Packing, and the Bellagio should have trouble paying those fines. No jobs, no attraction to come here. Except to visit our wonderful tourist opportunities, or go to school here. Oh, yeah, for someone with a valid student visa, I would award a green card upon graduation from any accredited college or university with a master's or Ph.D. Keep the smart ones here. [/QUOTE]
