Make green cards really hard to forge. Post big signs at the border in Spanish, "Don't leave home without it," then crack down hard on employers who hire workers who did.

Actually, I don't see what good idenity papers are, anyhow, with the current disregard for who has valid ones or not.

I had a boyfriend once who took his driver's licence and inserted a picture of an otter where his face should have been because he wanted to "look like I ottah" (I know, I sure can pick 'em). Anyway I was with him once when he got pulled over by a cop to be issued a warning for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign. My boyfriend handed his licence to the cop and the guy didn't even blink. Just said "Make sure you come to a complete stop next time," and handed him his licence back.

Come to think of it, he DID sort of look like the otter on his licence - big brown eyes and blond whiskers.
