The fact is that people hire illegals so as either to pay them less or to deny them the benefits that they would have to provide to legal employees. Either way the business owner comes out way ahead financially.
My father used laborers from halfway houses because he didn't like the idea of using illegals. I have been on job sites with both, as a rule I will not hire an illegal but often you are really guessing status, many use fake SSN's.
