Managers That Hire Undocumented Workers Get Jail

Well, we'll see what ends up happening, but there are some pretty unhappy manangers at IFCO. Homeland Security raided offices of the Houston-based, pallet-making company, arresting managers and undocumented workers.

This Boston Globe story is pretty good. You'll note a healthy amount of skepticism from pretty much all sides. Nobody thinks the Bushies are serious. In fact, some think this is to undermine a more stringent enforcement program rumbling around in Congress.

Loathe as I am to say anything good about the Bush administration and with all due skepticism, still I have to say that this is the right thing to do.

Here's some comments between Tas and I regarding his post on Loaded Mouth that calls for exactly this kind of action. Regardless of whether this is the start of something completely insignificant, I think it deserves recongition.

If only so we can stomp with both feet when the cave in the face of pre$$ure from companies that make something more critical than pallets.
