You're not wrong, but what you described is only a problem because even if you don't abuse paperless immigrants and pay them below minimum wage, your competition will.

The solution isn't to let everyone do this, it's to stop everyone from doing it.

    I agree. If companies had their license to operate removed for doing it, the problem would solve itself. Be shut down if you get caught.

    Nope, shutting a business down by itself doesn't do anything because the people running the business would just start a new business.

    The company owners and the people running it need to be personally held accountable, preferably through a combination of fines and not allowing them to run a business.
