FQ, you're right that employers should be held responsible for their part too, but one crime doesn't excuse the other. This problem is caused by both employers and aliens. That said, if I were from Mexico, or nearly any other country in central and south America, I'd want to come here too. I may even feel obligated to do so to take care of my family. However, I sure wouldn't expect the host country to bend over backwards for me. Of course, the government here in California is constantly bending. I think bending over is their hobby.
