I'm gonna preface this by saying that I'm a Republican, just for my own shits and giggles.
There's nothing we can do about the actual border to fix the problem of illegal immigration. If you build a better fence, you build a better fence climber.
IMO, I think we should make it far easier to get a work visa and TIN (taxpayer identification number). This would not only ensure that those entering the country pay their fair (or unfair, since who likes taxes) share, but it would ensure that they are able to receive the benefits that taxpayers are entitled to (ie., disability, social security, etc.), and be paid "on the books".
More importantly, this would hold employers accountable when it comes to job safety, fair wages, and fair hours (which include overtime), workman's comp, and so on.
