It also makes me think that perhaps they have miscalculated- knowing that so many illegals are willing to organize and act out will surely make people more leery of them on the whole and maybe spur the anti's into action.

Oh, yes. You KNOW they don't pay much. Add to that medical, etc.
Out $12,000 for the day? Because he probably paid the workers a pittance.
Will our economy suffer? Or will it dip for a bit and then become more strong if we fix this problem?
