ICE agents raid Arizona car wash chain
(CNN) -- A chain of Phoenix-area car washes that's raised thousands for local charities, including numerous law enforcement agencies, found itself the target of a sweeping raid Saturday by law officers.
Special agents from Immigration and Custom Enforcement's homeland security investigations unit conducted raids at 13 Danny's Family Car Wash locations in central Arizona, plus three locations tied to its outsourced staffing service provider, HR Betty, said ICE spokesman Andrew Munoz.
"We are ... going after businesses that are a magnet for unauthorized workers," Munoz said.
The action came as part of a criminal investigation into alleged criminal fraud, identity theft and financial violations, according to the agency. Few details were immediately available, though more would come out if an indictment in the case is unsealed.

The world survived just fine without strict border controls right up to the 20th century. Now we are all penned into our nation-state domains, serfs bound to our nation-state masters. Thralls for the corporate uber-lords who run those states and exploit the labor rate differentials to further line their pockets. When the EU dropped strict border regulation within the EU states, nothing terrible happened. Mostly people were just free to go live and work where they wished. What a horror that would be.
