'Illegal employers' responsible for hiring 'illegal aliens'

3:03 p.m. CT March 2, 2017



Having read Alan W. Garett’s response to Tom Whitehurst’s column, I have to say that I agree 100 percent with Mr. Garett. (Although I feel very uncomfortable calling any human being “illegal.”)

That was an excellent lesson on the English language concerning the term “illegal aliens.” However, I feel that he did not complete the lesson.

Following his logic, an employer who hires “illegal aliens” must be defined as an “illegal employer.”

Should we deport “illegal employers” along with “illegal aliens”? After all, they are not only breaking the law, they are actually encouraging illegal immigration! If deporting “illegal employers” is not feasible, then what do we do with the real estate developers, building contractors, wealthy households with domestic help, farmers, ranchers, restaurant owners, etc. who meet this definition?
