You're probably right; employers would simply make less of a profit.

Too few people have the long-term vision needed to create a truly healty economy.
Not to mention less paperwork by hiring illegals (Social security also takes a bite). Hiring illegals is an easy out for greedy people on a lot of levels and should be more harshly punished. Our country's economy could benefit from Americans being able to make their living and would also keep the cash flow within our borders by the spending in America that could occur.

AZ is no different than Texas for smuggling with the exception that more come through here lol. We've had a string of pick-up truck accidents since Oct. that have hurt and killed many illegals as well as AZ residents from smugglers trying to get people farther north. Seems to me a pick-up truck loaded with as many as 17 people in an open truck bed would be obvious enough to patroling officers in such a way that they could come up with a process for surrounding and stopping the vehicle that doesn't involve high speed chases that end in injuries and death.
