Good ideas by other people

Via the Peripatetic Engineer at the Sandbox blog: "The United Arab Emirates has announced an amnesty for illegal workers. Under the terms of the amnesty, which began on June 4, illegal workers have 3 months to either legalize their status or leave. Workers not complying face up to 10 years in prison followed by deportation, while their employers could be imprisoned for one month and fined 50,000 dirhams." ($14,000 US)

Rico agrees with him: Makes you wonder why the US can’t institute a similar policy.
