I agree that the employer part is a big part of the problem. But I don't agree that ALL of the responsibility should lie with the business.

Also, it just creates the possibility of having a horde of unemployed aliens here, which doesn't really solve the issue...might even make it worse.

So, if the idea is to reduce the amount of people sponging off social programs and taking up resources, then JUST the e-verify isn't going to cut it. A lot of aliens aren't here to work.

I think nothing is going to take the place of actually getting serious about the border.
