- Ensure all I-9s are submitted into an AI-fueled database that correlates against headcount and other factors.

- Fine and arrest employers who hire illegally.

- Fine and arrest landlords who rent to illegals.

I’m sure this won’t lead to a totalitarian surveillance state :D

This isn't serious enough. Instead of fining and arresting landlords, you seize all of their property? Instead of fining and arresting employers, why not put them on a sanction list and make it illegal for them to have a bank account for the rest of their life? Maybe then they'll think twice before doing it.

That would push it too far. I’m modeling this approach on what some Eastern European countries did, what Turkey does, and what Israel did a few years ago.

Namely, attack the demand curve. Same thing with drugs. It’s horrifying and untenable, but hypothetically the way to end the “drug war” would be to poison the drug supply and initiate a die off, a scramble to treatment centers, and a recession for cartels. If we think of economics, DEA really is just a price support agency that bolsters cartel profits.

I absolutely disagree. I think if we crucified all the illegals in a long row all along the roads and made their hands point back the way they came from, it would make them think twice before doing it
