Here I will set it up better with your original question.
1. Less money circulated in America, less benefit to us all.  Once the money is gone from the United States, its gone from circulation in our country and every lost dollar has the potential to increase inflation.

2. Hiring illegal immigrants under the table devalues American Citizen`s wages because as long as cheap illegal labor can be had, there would be no reason for the business owner to pay anyone a fair/living wage.  This has a great impact on law abiding citizens who want to work, but can`t because some illegal immigrant is just going to steal the job for 3 dollars an hour and then go back to Mexico with the money. We have a standard of living that needs to be upheld and by supporting this type of illegal nonsense, it does nothing but lower it.  Even if they don`t go back to Mexico, it lowers the standard further.

The lower the standard of living goes, inflation increases, dollar devalues, quality of goods and service decrease and we all suffer as a result.
Yip this is the same issue for the most part in other country's as well, here in Australia things are going the same way, immigrant unskilled and ""Skilled Labour"... they are working for as much as HALF and for alot less in entitlements as the average Aussie worker here, the Employers are taking advantage of that Obviously....same situation different Country
