There are plenty of workers here. I am willing to pay a higher price for my lettuce to not have my country overrun by people who flout our laws.

That's nice. And you have your right to vote that way. I am opposed to illegal immigration as well, but I don't feel the federal government should have a policy that bars people willing to work and contribute to America's economic growth, in favor of people who refuse to do a simple job unless paid a much greater sum of money. Yes, there are "plenty" of workers here to survive at a much less prosperous level. I have a feeling you would be really mad if unemployment was sky-rocketing and the Dow was tanking as would happen under your "ship them all home" plan.
