So basically, our country is EVIL and the CAUSE of people committing crimes because we are so successful? Nice world view. I would say the problem is a prime example of the politicization of laws. Especially on the left, using illegals as another "victim" group to further their radical agenda. I would submit that Presidents who did nothing, or paid lip service, or wrote executive orders to create these "victim" groups and kick the can down the road failed miserably in their duties, violated their oath, and the Constitution: Article II, Section 3, "..he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed,.."  And to be "fair", if any illegal alien is found, for WHATEVER reason they're here, they need to be deported (that way, we're not "picking on" anyone.)  And were it up to me, anyone HIRING illegals would suffer a huge fine and the loss of their business.  Saying our success is at fault, would blame victims of ANY property crime for that crime. That's senseless.
