People have realized that the illegal Mexican invasion will never be stopped unless the jobs magnet is removed, and social services to illegals stopped.

I am not sure this is a problem of the federal government (bureaucracy). The executive branch does what it is directed and funded to do.
The issue, in my opinion, is with the lack of adherence to our Constitution.
What objection can the opposing viewpoint have in complying with our Bill of Rights in ensuring individual liberty and the freedom to create legally binding social contracts, that may result in employment?
The Ninth and First Amendments enumerate both the individual power and the individual right to pursue happiness in a manner that may result in a social contract that provides for traditional labor input to the US economy.
The states power of Naturalization expired in 1808, and the states are denied and disparaged the power and right to legislate laws "impairing the Obligation of Contracts" in article first, section tenth of our (US) Constitution.
Why does the opposing viewpoint want to rely on less efficient command economics, in our form of federal democracy and mixed market economy?
A market friendly work visa public policy scheme would actually solve the issue black market, migrant labor participation in the US, while generating revenue and providing for the general Welfare of the United States by reducing public and private sector costs.
