Hold employers accountable with foreign hires<\/p>\n
Instead of a $10 billion wall, hold company owners who hire \u201cillegal workers\u201d responsible. Currently, President Trump wants to use $8.6 billion to \u201cbuild a wall.\u201d However, there is the most simplest solution that no one has thought of because it is such common sense (a trait no longer found in \u201cAmerica\u201d).<\/p>\n
Legislators can now just pass a bill that will:<\/p>\n
1. Fine company owners (Republican or Democrat) $1 million if found guilty of hiring anyone without proper identification.<\/p>\n
2. Imprison company owners for one year if they are found guilty of hiring an employee without checking and insuring proper identification.<\/p>\n
Of course companies will have to begin \u201csharing the wealth\u201d with employees, raising wages to a living wage \u2014 that will get the \u201clazy non-immigrants\u201d off their couch.<\/p>\n
With all the profits companies have attained from hiring \u201cmodern-day slaves\u201d at minimum wages, it will be good redemption for those wealthy business owners \u2014 and maybe then they can \u201cget into Heaven!\u201d<\/p>\n
And anyway, it is common knowledge that in big business and construction, the rip-offs that occur with overinflated prices for 2-by-4s puts lots of free cash into unscrupulous hands, so building a wall isn\u2019t in the best interest for anyone who pays taxes.<\/p>\n
