Contracting on Jose without insurance or license can be a major headache if something goes wrong. We tend to point at the illegal all the time when it is of our own doing that causes these problems.

Well, like I said, most have found ways to put on the legal front, but still work illegals. I don't know of one contractor that's ever been hit, but they do hit some big corps. Fact is they really do nothing, because of politics...
I could walk into 100 businesses right now and expose it and I'm sure they know more than I do.

However, to say illegals haven't cost many US jobs is wrong. Like I said up until the mid 90's you could walk on any large construction job and still find majority of US workers with decent pay....

I think the 12 million here will get a legal status very soon, I'm seeing many in the GOP getting on board.
