3. Where would they be deported to?
Maybe we could deport them to a third world country and make them work in a sweat shop?!

6. No, and I can't vote for either option.
They shouldn't get deported for hiring undocumented workers -- workers who fill jobs that no one else will take. Instead, CEOs should get deported for outsourcing jobs to other countries.

7. Americans would take those jobs in a free market
"undocumented workers -- workers who fill jobs that no one else will take"

No, that's Republican talking points. The only reason Americans won't do those jobs is because they won't pay fair wages. If a company can't hire legal workers, they need to raise the pay until someone will - not break the law and exploit poor immigrants.

It's Econ 101, Supply & Demand.

9. Deporting a US citizen would be unconstitutional
Cute idea, but the CEO could be deported only if he or she was a resident or non-resident alien.
