You might enjoy a class in basic economics. If illegal immigrants weren't around to take these jobs at the present wages offered, wages would go up to the point at which Americans laborers were willing to fill the jobs.

I'll take that class if you agree to eliminate minimum wage laws that cause employers to be unable to pay the value offered by the employee.

Put differently, you're assuming that the jobs filled by many illegal immigrants would, absent that labor pool, be economically viable jobs from an employer perspective at the current minimum wage or market-clearing wage (if higher). I think neither is the case.
