If certain people didn't break the law to begin with--Big corporate greed couldn't abuse them. So I think the first Law Breakers are causing more greed in others. Your thoughts?

It certainly does.

I think it's the other way around ... greed encourages lawlessness.
It's certainly not the only motivation for crime ... I'd like to think that most people break the law only out of desperation bred by injustice (in which case all we'd have to change is injustice!), but I'm not that naive. There are people, lots of them, who are essentially amoral and will blatantly disregard something as trivial as The Law in order to get what they believe they need or deserve. It transcends things like race, socio-economic status, and education.
Corporate greed just compounds and confirms their belief that it's acceptable. Not sure what you mean by abuse, but I find it hard to believe that big corporations would target lawbreakers as a desireable demographic.

I think you're dead-on-target there, we've had corporations basically writing laws to their own liking for a while now through lobbying, and they give a crap about our borders or our country, frankly, as long as they're making a buck.
Employer crackdowns will rend a Big Hole in their evil plans, though, when we see the day when it's costing 10k/instance for immigration law violations, we'll largely see the end of a good portion of this whole mess. When businesses end up fighting for their business license in court, it'll make a good statement for the whole country that our laws aren't to be trifled with.
I think along with that you need to think about ending some of welfare. That way you've got more americans out there 'doing the jobs that americans won't do'. That's how it goes down in other countries, why not ours?

You have a point. The first breaking the law of entry is the start. Than the greed of others continues it.

I agree that if corporations would not try to cut costs there would not be so many illegal aliens. Cheap labor or slave labor, however you put it, is essentially for the greed of one corporation or employer. If amnesty if given the illegal aliens would want the same rights and wages will go up, the job market in the USA could be seriously affected.

I agree. Mind you it is also breaking the law to take advantage of it.
Employers have gotten addicted to cheap, illegal labor. However, I don't see why we should have to pay the bill for their habit.
