That's complete crap though. You don't allow people to break the law
just to stay in business, if you cannot compete within the bounds of
the law that everyone has to follow, you shouldn't be in business to
begin with.

The simple fact is, get rid of the illegals, require all employers to
follow the same labor laws and if the prices go up, they go up.
That's life. Then maybe they can actually COMPETE in a free market.
