I agree with everything you said here. I would just like if they start handing out punishments in the public sector first. If your caught giving food stamps or any other government aid government employees should go to jail. Anyone complicit go to jail. Those political figures declaring their city's, counties, states, etc sanctuary areas should go to prison. I'm not all for kicking down doors or dragging harmless illegal immigrants across the border. I don't blame someone for wanting to try and make it here, who wouldn't? But the enablers need to be addressed and that includes people's like my own governor jerry brown.If there is no job they won't come or stay here. A lot of the talk about we need them to take jobs no one wants is bullshit.
I lived in south utah 10 years ago and undocumented workers had driven down wages $7000 a year for a guy with only a high school diploma. They were building roads, working construction, jobs that should have went to Americans. I'd go acroos the street to the convenience store at lunch and no one spoke English.
Crucify a few contractors and that shit will not happen. Same with companies if upper management has to do a year in county jail or a few in prison there will no longer be a problem. Agriculture is an exception and those who work need to be documented.
As long as Americans profit because of undocumented workers there will be undocumented workers. This is a simple problem to correct. We just have to lock up a few employers.
