What happened to the problem of illegal aliens?

I can agree on your assessment of those who hire illegals, but I disagree that illegals wouldn't come here anyway.......there is nothing for them at home, and begging on the streets of America is probably preferable to begging in Mexico. They will always hope to find something better, and if they get here and no one will hire them they will simply turn to gang and criminal activities. That doesn't help the US much. We absolutely have to close our borders, no matter what it takes to do that.

They need to be given a legal way in which to enter. Our governmental policies at present prevent this. A person who worked for me was here with his wife and children. He was a green card. The law required that he go back to Mexico last year but to regain entry was going to cost him $2500 for each person. Needless to say he could not afford this for legal entry. His choices for re-entry are very limited.

He is presently here illegally but not employed by me.

What?? Please explain that we do not have avenues for immigration. What policies prevent this from happening? Acquiring a green card is not equivalent to applying for immigration, it is equated to being allowed to work in the US, a far different scenario.

An immigrant from Mexico must pay $2500 per person to enter the U.S. to work. This is what I found out from legal immigrants from Mexico. They were very concerned about their ability to bring their families into the U.S. to work. And they were unable to even pay the entrance fee for themselves.
This the the U.S. immigration to work policy.
These people were not applying for permanent immigration, but rather temporary work status (green card).

Don't support businesses who hire illegals

But coming to this country only to work is not the same as immigrating with the purpose of staying. I'm unaware of a huge expense associated with that. Perhaps your friend needs to make a choice, immigrate with the expressed purpose of becoming an American or continue coming here (not immigrating) for the purpose of working.

We just get on a plane and fly down to Mexico on vacations- blow right through customs and we are on the beach before lunch. Did you know that most Mexicans can't come here!? Can't vacation here! It's like they border the old USSR or something. They can't visit our country? This is not what this country is all about- We should be ashamed of ourselves
