Lower costs.  Do he can do the same job for less than his competitiors.
Profit. He can do the same job for more money.
It's probably both.

The company I worked for a long time ago make a big mistake and sent us a
letter that itemized what it cost them to carry me as an employee.  Basically
50% of my salary was in fees that I never saw nor was I aware of until then.

Note that 75% of those fees were gov't mandates.

Now imagine someone needing to be the low bidder to get a contract.  They can
employ illegals for less money and don't have to pay all those hidden fees. 
That's a BIG cost savings. 

And if the Dems won't prosecute if he's caught employing illegals, what's the
downside?

Probably not.  More cost savings.


... I can't be overdrawn, I still have checks left!
