> I offer a simple position: America is composed of It’s citizens. Its immigration policy was made to protect it’s sovereignty and to protect the way of life of those citizens. Simply put-illegals don’t belong here.
This is called begging the question. The question has been in this thread “What should our laws be?” Laws are made for people, not people for laws. They are not to be arbitrary.
And the biggest question of all: why do otherwise law-abiding US citizens break only that one law with impunity? Probably never since Prohibition has so many people violated a single law with no remorse. and that (bad) law is a good reflection on how an “enforcement only” approach only works in cases where there is widespread ageement that breaking a law is morally wrong. In Prohibition people didn’t feel that way; now many don’t feel that way hiring illegals. Why? And that’s the the problem you must address if you want to impose stiff employer sanctions.
