What kills me is that we already have a federal law in effect that levies a maximum fine of $25,000 per illegal. If that were enforced, I don't think we would have any problems with employers giving illegals jobs. If the chicken factory with 300+ illegals were fined accordingly, that would have been $7.5 million. If that didn't drive them out of business, it would make them think twice about hiring another illegal. The feds should really take some heat for that one, which they did in the media. There wasn't a problem with shipping the illegals back in that case, just a problem with fining the employer. As far as I am concerned, the problem lies with the employers.
