   Perhaps we could self deport many of the illegals. Just don't feed them and only give water to those heading South. You say this is inhumane: yes it is but so is destroying the greatest country and it's people! If we don't do this there are many worse things waiting on us

A better way would be to make it impossible for them to work.  If we started to send employers to prison and confiscate their businesses for hiring illegal workers they would stop.  That would only leave the govt to subsidize them and I can assure you as control moves from one party to the next they will not like it and will go home voluntarily.

How can an employer be assured of hiring a legal immigrant with all the proliferation of fake documents?  What does our federal government do to assist employers in this effort?

You have raised a big concern I have as well.....especially with states that give illegals driver's licenses.  You have to provide government-issued identification for both identity and employment status.  Things like a passport, work visa, etc.  These could all be easily verified by the government if they wanted to do it right.  Once an employer gets the I-9 and accompanying documents it is submitted to the govt.  What happens after that to verify it is anyone's guess......but whatever they do it is not working.  So to the extent the employer gathers all the proper documents and submits it they should be free from prosecution.  At the same time the govt should be responsible for verifying it.

But when it comes to illegal workers many of them work as day laborers paid in cash and those employers need to be prosecuted.

Do the states that give driver's licenses identify the person as being undocumented (illegal)?

I've never seen one but I seriously doubt it.  But that doesn't document their worker status.
