How Bizarre Can Things Get?

Just when you think things can't get more bizarre....It seems that those that hire illegal aliens have something else to worry about. If you hire illegals, your firm can actually be sued under the RICO Act by another competitor, because hiring illegals reduces your cost and results in unfair competition. Yes, companies can sue competitors who hire illegal aliens. Imagine your competitor spying on you so they can prosecute you! It happened between two cleaning companies, and the Federal Second Circuit Court upheld it. Convictions and penalties under the RICO Act can easily put you out of business--especially if you are a small business.
