As an employer, I am legaly bound to verify a persons identity, social security number and work status (resident alien, green card, citizen). So, when I hire someone I ask for all of the documents to verify their status. I copy them all and put them in their job file. Many of these documents are bogus. How did they get them you ask? It is very easy. To prove my point, I went to Santa Ana, CA and found several open air stalls selling false ID and SS cards. Cheap too. $50 US. I called the local police and notified them of what was going on. They told me it was a federal issue. I called the FBI and was told is was an immigration issue. I called INS and was told that there were so many places like this that they would take a report but no other action would be taken.
So, my point is, why blame the employer, when he has no way of doing the job the federal, state and local authorities should be doing?
