It is anathema to the reason most of us came here. To have the Federal Government of the United States say. "You may work today because we have decided that youre here legally. and were going to trust that all the records are right. that were going to go ahead and say that theres no glitch in it." and all in an effort to make the 19 form. odious by itself. work better is wrongheaded as well as being merely wrong. We should go the step in the other direction. to provide positive incentives for employers to help us solve the problem of illegal immigrants working. We should go in the direction of bringing the employers enlisted into the battle against illegal workers. rather than impressing them into the battle and making it as harmful as possible to the people who work for them. but as harmless to them as possible. We are not going in the right direction.
