Where do you get all this we from ? Hiring illegals is against the law, no matter how much money you say illegals can save you, it's still illegal. To suggest it is ok to violate another law by not paying the minimum wage , also means the farmer would actually be taking advantage of his workers. He does not to have pay workers comp, so when an illegal gets hurt on a farm, the taxpayers will be stuck paying all medical bills. We are not saving anything

As our Country is one of the most sustainable countries in the world, we have found that hiring immigrants keeps labor costs low, thus keeping the prices down in the grocery store. Since farmers and business owners are not allowed to hire illegal aliens without a work visa, the farmer loses money due to the economies strict wage requirements. The immigrant generally works for less than minimum wage thus allowing the farmer a larger profit.
