I had actually thought a bit about this today.

What would happen in other industries should the money paid to illegal aliens go to other discretionary places? Not just by the wealthy, either.....in my middle class neighborhood many homes have their yards maintained by hispanic laborers (not mine - I have found that yard work is a scam invented by men with young children to escape them on Saturdays ). I will not dare to presume that they are all illegal, but it is assuredly a safe assumption that some are. What if they took that money and invested it or bought something they otherwise wouldn't have and just did the work themselves? Other areas of the economy would benefit immensely.

So....I'm not going to zing you WB. This is one of those rare times we are in agreement.
