One of the firms working on the US-Mexico Border Fence has been fined $5 million for hiring illegal immigrants. This controversy was ironically predicted by comedians such as George Lopez, who jokingly says in his new act, "They want to build a fence along the border to keep out Mexicans, but who's gonna build it?" Answer: Mexicans.
The Golden State Fence Company will not only pay a major fine, but two of its executives will have to serve jail time for the hirings.
The company's attorney stated that this all goes to show that the country needs to adopt a robust guest-worker program.

If the workers stay on the other side of the border while they build the fence, is it still illegal or, rather, foreign outsourcing? :-/
it all makes sense now
Oh for God's sake! Maybe this just goes to show that what this country needs a more robust program of ethics for its corporate executives!
So does this mean migrant activists will support fence-building now, since it doesn't keep migrants out ... but does give them jobs?
Seems like corporate robber barons have no shame at all! They should have been charged with conspiracy to violate federal immigration law in addition to being fined.
What's next? Will we deputize illegal aliens to do immigration sweeps??
There should be a poll to see how many americans are outraged by this!?
