Question

The goverment fined a fence company in San Diego $5,000,000for hiring 10 illegals. They also are asking jail time for the owner of the company & his manager. This is a first. Not the fine but jail.They goverment is asking for 6 months for each. The illegals were part of a crew that built a 14 mile long border fence in San Diego. The company sales went from $60,000 in1998 to $150,000in 2004. The goverment said they had employed 100illegals in the past including 6 that had been deported. Do you think this will make a differance in hiring illegals. not the fine but the jail?

Wal-Mart did settle a goverment case in California with hiring Illegals. They paid a huge fine but NO jail time

Answer 1

I agree, but it does seem that Americans are generally lazy, look how many don't get off their duff's and vote! You can talk about doing something, but no one pays attention until someone has to pay the piper. There is too much talk about what needs to be done when we need more action! Jobs in America need to be filled by Americans. Why not hire some women to build fences, they claim they can do the same work as men!

Answer 2

It's a start. We can only hope and continue the fight. If we continue to demand enforcement and get it, we might teach our government that they actually can do something instead of constantly telling us they can't. We don't need any new laws at all. We need enforcement. So, let's have all our working citizens report illegal aliens and report the companies that hire them or the people who harbor and help them. Let's make it a very insecure place for illegal aliens and their children.

Since the 1986 amnesty wherein we gave 3 million illegal aliens the right to stay here legally, we have had a 400% increase in illegal alien population and a 400% increase in crime -- remember that entering our country illegally is a crime. Identity theft is the fastest growing crime in the United States and there is no doubt that we have traitors in our government and illegal voting in the USA. This is dangerous, gives U.S. Citizens no security--homeland or otherwise--and promotes the continuation of lawlessness. Gangs have increased their numbers and organized crime is growing faster than we can imagine.

The Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights has been promoting illegal immigration and has actually had illegal aliens stand up and blame our government for the deaths of their family members who crossed our borders illegally and then died as a result of it. Since when are lawbreakers given sympathy? Why aren't they charged with child endangerment and why isn't this group's heads (by the way Illinois tax dollars support the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights and Government Rod Blagojevich appointed them as part of his Policy Committee)
arrested and tried for treason?

Don't forget to send pink slips to your government officials who support illegal aliens and who refuse to enforce the laws of the land!

Answer 3

It should help. Every day you hear oh they only have jobs Americans don't want anyway. I say bull, Go by any construction sight and you will see nothing but illegals. plants too. I have worked any job I could find several times. Even if it is a job nobody wants we would take it in a pinch. And we all get in a pinch. Jail them or beat them with whips but STOP HIRING ILLEGALS

Answer 4

Absolutely.
However, before the Government can continue on this "band-wagon" of look this way, and forget all else, it is the responsibility of the INS or whomever ; to make sure that all HR departments no matter how small the company across the land, do get at least minimum training on how to recognize even the most sophisticated forged documents most of these poor buggers present to them upon hiring.

Answer 5

I think this is defiantly a step in the right direction. I would like to see a link to this article so I could read all the full details, as I wonder why they bothered to bust such a small company. I want to see bigger business go down. Like when you go to Walmart, not a damn person there speaks English! and you have to think if they were Mexican American they would at least know how to speak English.

Answer 6

of course not theres millions of other illegals to hire they say there are only 3 million illegals here in the united states i think theres 3 million here in oklahoma maybe each state needs to recount if they are using the census that is very wrong cause illegals dont respond to it thinking they will be deported

Answer 7

It would make a difference if it is done consistently. If we crack down really hard on those employing illegal aliens, then jobs for illegals would dry up and the incentive for illegals to come to the US would disappear. There's no reason for immigrants to illegally come to the US if they know they won't find work.

Answer 8

I think if they have to pay a fine plus give them jail time it will help it hits the employer where it hurts, losing money

Answer 9

No they will continue as money will motivate them More important they probably cant hire Americans to do this work to menial plus they would have to pay them more,so profit reduced.

Answer 10

I certainly hope so
