It is actually even worse than this! Owners intentionally hire undocumented workers knowing they'll be able to exploit them because they can't call enforcement for safety or labor violations because of the risk they put them in. Being able to use ICE to resolve any brewing labor disputes or unionization efforts is a sweet perk too. And they love this shit btw. It's not just cold opportunistic use of the incentives and systems they find. They love the unjust power it gives them in their personal domains and over the people around them. It's why they so reliably support trump in the end. They want serfs and he wants them to have serfs.
