I find the assertion that any but the most marginal business would fail to pay withholding and payroll tax and workman's comp. The risk alone could put you out of business in a very quick way.

It's also called hiring an outside company. We have no idea if the gardener's crew is working here illegally or not, regardless of how they got here. In fqct, many Hispanics pay into SS but never receive benefits. It's also absurd to say that at any time janitorial, repair, and delivery operation have ever or should ever be in-house. And no sane person operating those companies would cheat on payroll taxes and insurance.

Exactly. That is how "legitimate" firms get around the risk of hiring illegals while benefitting from the low wages they pay. Small businesses that this type work would be outsourced to that do not hit illegals are quickly priced out of the market while "legit" businesses and their customers benefit by proxy...and depress wages for citizens.
