If they are making money while they are here illegally, is not that money the same as money a drug maker earns? And we sieze the money and belongings of drug makers when we catch them. So, shouldn't we do the same to the money that illegal aliens make?

I would say so. It hurts the U.S. economy because they send the majority of that money back to their "home" country. That limits the money that is in the flow of the economy.
By the way, it is illegal to work for a wage and NOT report it to the IRS. It is considered tax evasion and in case you think it isn't a big deal, it is the ONLY thing that put Al Capone in jail. So in my eyes it is serious enough.

I would find that really wrong. Making money with a job is not illegal. Selling drugs is.
They worked for that money and hurt no one. Drug dealers are potential murderers if their drugs should cause an overdose.
Its simple...selling drugs BAD...earning money with a job...GOOD!!!

Unlike drug dealers, most illegals are not exactly sitting on big piles of cash you can confiscate.
