How much is the fine versus the amount of money saved by employing undocumented workers? If there was an actual punishment that affected the bottom line, companies wouldn't do it. Instead it's an expected expense.

There is Jail Time with the fine but it never gets used because the government has turned into as you suggested a loophole to not having to pay insurance and workers comp for employees while keeping their wages low. Getting an H-2 Temporary Work Permit takes about 30 days. It's fairly easy but that would actually cost the employers money because they would have to pay undocumented workers as regular American Citizens.

This is not a good thing. It just shows everyone that money can buy yourself out of trouble.
