I guess my point is that they probably don't care if the bed is clean if they have a job. All that happens when you add these costs is more lost jobs. They need safe work conditions and I am totally on board with that. We spend a lot of money each year, including having a full time corporate health and safety officer that reports directly to me. And I am fine with common sense government regulations that make for a safe workplace. But all these other rules and regulations only hurt businesses and ultimately those people they want to employ.

As for your comment about not being able to find other jobs, I think the evidence is that they can and will. There has been a large reverse migration to Mexico where unemployment is less than 5%. If they can go home to find a job they can certainly find another job here in the U.S. if they aren't offered a clean bed.
