Just Wondering

Depending on which report we read, there is estimated to be anywhere between 10 million and 12 million illegal aliens currently in the United States. Needless to say, that's quite a gap. I cannot help but to wonder that since these illegals are also known as "undocumented", how can we know how many are in the US? Who makes up these estimates and how do they come up with the numbers? And if they know enough to count even only 10 million and their presence is such a problem, then why not just go get them?

Just wondering.

We can set up counting devices at the US/Mexican border to tally up the numbers as they are escorted back to the other side.

Ah, but that would only count the ones who get caught!

True.

Make it a felony of 5+ years to employ an illegal alien. They'd start to pop up pretty quickly.

I happen to agree with that if we are truly serious about controlling the alien population.
