My point is that presently too many get through and not enough is done to enforce the laws of the land. Education, healthcare, driving licenses would be great places to find illegals. Drivers, Children or sick people who can't present valid ID get deported. Then the only places the illegals can work are in the worse jobs that provide temporary accommodation. In the EU legal migration has done this, so it can be done in America.

Of course wages will force prices up, but at the same time people will earn more. Over the last 20 years we have seen a slow erosion of salaries for 80% of the working population. That alone effects your income and the income of every one selling to the 80%. In the same time we see to top 10% increasing their income and the top 1% increasing by an obscene amount. That has to stop.

The good side is it will reduce unemployment in real numbers, not the Government fake numbers, providing jobs and a future for all the people who don't have one. Reducing crime would be a major win, reducing taxes another.

God help us when automation continues to bite and jobs in fast food, coffee shops, buying online increases and all jobs are lost at the lower end. However jobs like Plumbing and house building will be taken up by citizens of a country and not illegals because they do it cheaper.
