137. Pie in the sky

There is no way they will jail employers for hiring undocumented workers. Don't you think it's counterproductive to jail employers, thus take jobs off the market?

Fines are a reasonable punishment. Repeated charges should be met with loss of business privilege license.

I think there are more effective ways in attacking the job crisis and the pressure that is being put on the middle and lower classes though. Raising minimum wage is a must. Restructuring the tax system is another. Eliminating corporate welfare to companies that outsource would also have a big impact.
