It’s geometry. It’s less energy to enforce a boundary than a bounded area.
Do you really think a dollar’s worth of border enforcement prevents more unauthorized labor hours than workplace enforcement? What about the improvements that would come with additional workplace enforcement, like reducing wage theft, inadequate safety, and other abuses?
You mean what about the opportunity to increase government surveillance? I guess that’s another reason it’s not happening. Not everyone sees that as good.
Labor violations get reported by regular people. There’s no government surveillance involved.
