Then we would know WHO they are, WHERE they are, HOW MUCH dinero they are making, what their FINGER PRINTS look like, what their IRIS SCAN is, who their EMPLOYER is, who and where their U.S. based FAMILIA MEMBERS live AND what INFECTIOUS DISEASES they don't have.

Couple that with the fees collected IN ADVANCE in exchange for their work visa along with a firm grip on what TAXES they owe and we just might eliminate some of the Identity Theft that concerns some.
Still....what would keep them from sneaking into the country illegally. Why would they pay the fee, get a visa, register and pay taxes and such when they can just sneak in?
