Illegal immigrants come to the US for work and to provide a better life for their family. If the work was unavailable they would no longer come. And the immigrants here illegally would not stay.
However, to make sure the work that needs to be done continues to be done we would also need to start issuing more Visas and make legal immigration an easier process.

the employers of these sweat shop operations hire and filter the illegals through "employment agencies" which are really just human trafficking operations. it gives them an arms length so they can claim ignorance about the legality of their workers.
it is a nice and profitable scam but essentially the workers are treated like slaves.
