    Scapegoating them is one thing. Actually deporting them is another. The people who employ illegal immigrants are doing it so they can pay them a pittance and have leverage over them. They’re not going go want their cheap workforce deported simply because it’ll increase costs.

      Deporting 5-10 % of your population will absolutely wreck your economy to the point that it might never recover. Good luck with that
