Your borders are disappearing and even though it is illegal to open a bank account for these people, illegal for them to cross the border in the first place, illegal for them to even be here, and people don't seem to care. This is just touching the tip of the iceberg on this subject - but the short of it is, anything illegal should not be tolerated - period. Might as well ship cocaine up from Columbia since its no big deal the way you describe it.

I understand that it's illegal for those workers to be in the US, thats more or less open and shut. Illegal immigration is a serious concern, and more schemes like Operation Gatekeeper couldnt go amiss. The question of illegals already in the US is a different one, and a matter for legislation and policy.

I don't see how businesses are involved, though. If someone has made it to the USA to work, they'll want to spend at least some of the money they earn. It is good business sense to deal with them. The status of the immigrant isn't the concern of the business, it's a matter for the government.

No, I really can't.
