Perhaps if these illegals had come to the USA legally and worked legally, then they would have a better chance of being paid. I have zero sympathy for these individuals. In fact, I hope they tell all their buddies who want to follow them into the USA illegally that this country sucks and you don’t even get paid for the work you do.
It makes perfect sense to me, opening employers up to lawsuits like that would stop them dead in their tracks from hiring anyone who could sue them for big bucks in court.
I take it you don’t believe the workman is worthy of his hire. It doesn’t matter if the guy is “illegal” or not. If you hire someone and don’t pay them, it’s theft and the person who does this is scum.
What is this, a loophole in the “thou shalt not steal” rule?
