Let's think about this. What happens if all the illegal immigrants actually did disappear overnight? The free enterprise system kicks into gear. For a short time there would be some hardships. But the companies that only exist by exploiting other humans will go out of business. Companies that appreciate their fellow man will offer wages that are attractive and charge customers accordingly. Should anyone expect that a human providing for a family would be picking produce or making beds for a wage above zero but far less than needed if they weren't trapped by those who take advantage of them? Some goods and services will become more expensive, but will be done by people who do the jobs willingly. Can you imagine?
The transfer might be a bit less problematic if you started with a period of few years when companies that hire only legal citizens and legal immigrants would be rewarded in some ways. Like maybe needing to pay way less taxes.
I would agree with you IF we were in a capitalist society. We aren’t we are in corporations lobby heavy society. The free market doesn’t exist as long as large corporations can sway any laws that would relive the business cost of small business. Do that and there is a chance.
