Honest Americans are worried about jobs. Criminals from foreign nations, illegal aliens, are wondering how long it will take to get another freebie from decent people. The criminals know they will be protected by government and employers.
“In federal fiscal year 2010 there were around 8 million illegal aliens working in the United States. Despite stepped up enforcement, just 196 people holding some form of managerial title were arrested for employing undocumented workers, says the Congressional Research Service report.”
I can find triple that in my home county of Ventura—in a day. American criminals go to jail—illegal aliens go to the Dodger game.
Employing illegal aliens? Odds are you won’t get caught
Central Valley Business Times, 5/14/12
• 8,000,000 people working illegally in U.S.
• 196 employers arrested
The odds would seem to be in favor of employing illegal aliens because you can get away with it, based on numbers in a new report to Congress.
In federal fiscal year 2010 there were around 8 million illegal aliens working in the United States. Despite stepped up enforcement, just 196 people holding some form of managerial title were arrested for employing undocumented workers, says the Congressional Research Service report.
The number was “in line with ICE’s stated focus in the worksite enforcement area on criminally investigating and prosecuting employers who knowingly employ unauthorized workers,” the report says.
There had been a decline in criminal arrests among managerial employees between FY2008 and FY2009. The comparable number of managerial employee criminal arrests in FY2008 was 135, the report says, citing figures from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the principal investigative arm of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the second largest investigative agency in the federal government.
“Viewed more broadly, ICE administrative and criminal arrests in worksite enforcement operations represent a very small percentage of the potential population of violators,” says the report.
