[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 2795199, member: 24302"] The actual crossing of the border isn't a criminal offence but the ones using false I.d. are definitely committing a criminal act. But let's also go after the ones hiring them. They aren't being hoodwinked. When I was working out of Lubbock there was a Swift packing plant nearby that got tipped off that they were going to be raided soon by ICE. They suddenly started advertising in paper for workers, offering much better pay and benefits than they were. The raid hauled in over 500 illegals. Nothing happened to company execs. IMO the border problem has never been corrected because Republican businessmen want cheap labor, and Democrat politicians see future votes, as well as opportunities to implement gov't programs. That plant in that small city of 20,000 could've represented decent jobs to citizens in an area where decent jobs were in short supply. No one seems to care about working class Americans. [/QUOTE]
