Quietly Enforcing Immigration Laws
In Belize, an employer was jailed for hiring “undocumented workers”. This is their term not mine. The “undocumented workers” came across the border from Guatemala and Honduras. Yes, you heard me correctly! Latin Americans penalizing other Latin Americans for employing “undocumented workers.” What a concept!
The employer, if found guilty, must pay $1,000 for each “undocumented worker” for a total of $19,000. As if that were not enough, try this on for size. The “undocumented workers” could also be fined and if they cannot pay, they will serve prison time before they are deported back to their home countries.
There were no howls of racism, xenophobia or hate. There were not any marches down the street demanding rights. The illegal aliens will be shipped back home and the immigration laws are enforced. Job done!
