Cyn, perhaps another point in your favor in that my neat little solution was neither neat nor a solution - just like the real world. You fall outside my xenophobia/racism argument for the most part. Honestly, most first and second generation immigrants usually do, and they're typically harder on illegals than others.
What I find interesting is that no one has mentioned the thousands of illegal European immigrants that are here. The two Polish women that work for the cleaning service my wife hired are almost certainly illegally working, if not here illegally. I know of at least 5 fencing coaches in Chicago that are here on expired visas, one of whom coached 2 athletes to national championships and makes well over $100k/year. They're all here illegally, but because they got off a plane and didn't have to walk in, they get less attention.
