The businesses are able to get away with it because A) The Federal and State governments allow the huge influx of illegals, and B) The Federal and State Governments don't do enough to enforce our existing laws.
Now, who put the Governments in power? We, the People.
Illigeal Immigration is a problem for as long as We, the People allow it. Businesses are in it for the money, and if We leave illegals laying around, why would We expect profit-seekers to ignore such a valuable resource?
Business aren't about protecting our country. Why lay the blame at their doorstep? The Government is supposed to protect us, and We are the ones responsible for making sure they do their job.
Instead, we're content if they keep tossing refund checks our way and pave the road to Pure Digital TV for Every American.

He has a point here. If the government stopped the influx of cheap labor business would look to other methods to make a profit or just simply make a little less profit by raising their prices. Here in LA when someone is moving everyone says go to the corner and get a couple Mexicans to move your stuff into the truck. Now if they were not there in the first place you would have to pay a bit more and hire a legitimate moving or labor company. Would you go broke because you paid a bit more for the legitimate, insured company? Hell no, you might do it yourself but you will find a way to do it.
You cannot blame the users of the benefit, that will happen no matter what. Here is a hypothetical. If the government said we will be granting welfare based on the honor system without any verification. How many people that you know will be applying and getting free welfare? You know that if a benefit is there and is unregulated people will abuse it. You may have pride and will not do it but there is a hell of a lot of other people who will. That is why the government has verification before welfare is issued. Same with immigration, the government can allow it but it must be monitored and controlled and you cannot depend on the beneficiaries to do the monitoring.
Now the fact that the government is owned by the beneficiaries through lobby groups is a whole different story.
