Oh, please, yourself. It's not illegal to have hired either a bank robber or child molester (I assume once they've served their sentences). It "is" illegal to hire "undocumented Americans".
"It's not reasonable to expect a farmer, etc., to be come a document expert."
OH, PLEASE. If you had even a remote clue to the amount of federal documentation ANY farmer has to go through to understand the various federal agricultural programs, you wouldn't make that statement. Verifying the legality of workers is trivial next to THAT load.
"We have huge numbers of government employees whose JOB it is to rid us of these people, and they don't do it They are the ones who should be strung up."
And if the EMPLOYERS don't provide the information, how are those government employees ever going to know??? Don't be stupid.
I guess that's me, really stupid.
But using your logic, employers don't have to worry because without them the police would never know.
(And BTW, Sherlock, I wasn't referring to bank robbers and child molesters who had already done their time. I was referring to ones not yet apprehended. I guess I thought this obvious.)
