You keep ignoring the fact that illegals aren't working in major brand retail stores. You're conflating two separate issues, at least as far as retail-service jobs are concerned, and illegals.
OMG! You're so clueless.
If we deport 10 million illegal alien workers, their former employers will have to raise wages
to fill those 10 million positions. Some Walmart (and Target and Starbucks and every other business's) workers will see those higher wages and leave Walmart and those other jobs to take a new, better paying job.
Now Walmart, and those others, are short employees. They'll have to raise wages to fill
those slots.
On the other side of the equation, the landlords who rented to those illegal aliens will have empty apartments and homes that they need to rent to new tenants. They'll have to reduce rents in order to attract these tenants.
Only someone who has no clue about supply and demand could fail to understand this.
Those illegals are working in agriculture and for small contractors. I doubt the cashier at Walmart or those who work in retail are going to run to the farms to pick produce. American workers getting paid a living wage shouldn't be contingent upon deporting illegals, it should just be a requirement for hiring employees. When salaries were left to the market, as you propose, most Americans were dirt poor.
