Welcome back, Spence. I hope you don't take everything I post in here too seriously. Sometimes my sense of humor, or lack thereof isn't taken the way it's meant to be.
As for our feelings about this, I don't think we're all that far apart. Why not start now since it's already in the provisions? By taking that part out of the Senate version of the bill, they're just delaying the inevitable.
And I certainly don't believe that all businesses are going to all of a sudden start hiring correctly and following the rules. That will never happen. But, if they make it a requirement, it will undoubtedly spur some companies to start doing the right thing. The E-Verify program shouldn't be made out to be some difficult process that is going to bog down anything or put more laws on the books. It's a great tool that if used is going to make things better for companies.
