Totally agree. But that is going to require making it easy for an employer to positively identify who is elegible to work in the US and who isn't...and right now that's a joke. How you do that without a national identity document I don't know. I'm not opposed to that, since I'm already identity-documented up the wazoo, but I know a lot of other people are for reasons they're seldom able to articulate; they just begin FUDding around about Big Brother without explaining what freedom of anonymity it is they have now that they're going to lose if the big scary goverment can actually figure out who they are.
