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.

So, from what I understand, an illegal already here is OK from what you describe? Next off, unless you are opening a business account, it is illegal to open a bank account without a valid SS number, so this is OK? According to you, it is OK for a business to support both illegal acitvities, as long as an extra buck is made, is that correct?

Another thought - Is it OK for a bank to launder money from drug cartels? That is along the same lines. It is money made illegally. So what is different here exactly? Not as many people hurt from how this money was made? Or maybe is it a question of that not as many people are at the forefront were hurt since all the people hurt are still hiding in the shadows?

The point is - you have a situation here where people are turning a blind eye. They are not looking out for the future of their chidren anymore. They are looking in an of themselves. This is a cancer upon society. It is not just with illegals, it is with all things. Our society is on a downward spiral and this is just one more thing to add to the fire.
