It will end in 90 days. You will be able to lay-off those border patrol folks and save about $100M
No President has put such measures into place. It would require more than $10 million, but the fines collected would far out weigh the costs. Imagine 1,000s of fast food outlets being fined for hiring illegal workers. Fines they pay or get closed down, imagine illegals offered a trip home or having to be split up and held in camps.

But that would mean a rise in wages and then a rise in prices as companies are forced to pay more. And people prefer their cheap stuff to giving fellow citizens jobs.
