In light of Dubya's recent guest worker program gaining ground, and Krugman ($$) voicing out against illegal immigration, its refreshing that Jagdish Bhagwati, economist extraordinaire and potential Nobel laureate (you heard it here, first!) supported ($$) illegal immigration for Foreign Affairs in 2003. But his comments still ring true today. He says

Both sides are doomed to fail. Governments must stop trying to curtail migration and start managing it to seek benefits for all.
