Be a lot easier to establish the guest worker program.

These people do show up, they do get jobs, they do pay what taxes 
they have to and they do send money home. Be a lot easier to control 
the situation by dealing with the reality rather than make everyone 
stop and show their papers.

Of course this "deal with it as it is" rational hasn't made any 
headway in the recreational drug 'war' in the last 30 plus years. 
Doesn't work for the drugs but a LOT of money is made on both sides of the law.

I don't really expect this problem to be much different.
