This reminds me of the failed US war against drugs. Arrest lots of folks at the street level, get on the 6 o'clock news, and leave the big fish profiting from exploiting economic immigrants free to go on fishing for greed driven profits.

In the drug war brown and black young men in jail by hordes and money men go their merry way - Shades of the $700 billion bailout!
