Most certainly, housekeeper, anything connected to the building trade, truck and van drivers, cashiers, waiters, cooks, janitors, nurses, etc. Proving that Americans have become incredibly lazy over the last 20-30 years or these jobs now pay shit.

bronco67 had a good point with companies saving money as the tax payer and country pick up the bill. Can the Anti-Wall side come upwith figures that prove The Wall would have to stop no one to lose the $5 billion. Cost it over the life time of The Wall.

Tunnels are another thing The Wall wasn't intended to stop. Those require advanced technology to detect people moving or digging underground.
I have said before and will say it again, if we got rid of birthright citizenship that would stop illegals from coming here, having kids, then getting welfare. If we also went hard after those who hire illegals they will stop hiring them. If people know they can't get jobs or welfare, they will stop coming here.

Of course, the prices of some things will go up because they are going to have to pay more for Americans to do those jobs, but a wall will only stop a few people. Cutting off their ability to support themselves will stop many.
