Calling illegal aliens undocumented immigrants is bad for the economy. It can never be allowed to catch on because if it does it will threaten to take jobs from hard working Americans and native born citizens in other countries who depend on illegal aliens. Just think of the hard working illegal alien reporting service providers, musicians, online merchants, and others who would suffer from people inappropriately calling aliens immigrants.
Just last year I launched one of just a handful of illegal alien reporting services because I realized that I could boost my income by selflessly helping to protect America and other countries by identifying those who have no right to be in those countries in the first place as well as the people who hire them. If it were not for illegal aliens I could never have named my service IllegalAlienReport.com nor could it continue to operate without changing its name and to satisfy what? Aliens many of which can't even read the pages anyway because they are written in English.
The great British musician Phil Collins and his original band Genesis could never have produced their hit single "illegal alien" if it were not for illegal aliens because "undocumented immigrant" does not have the same jingle. What kind of royalties would Genesis members make if the title of their song suddenly lost any and all relevance to the aliens they dressed up as in the music video embedded on this page? They wouldn't make much if anything.
Now what about the online merchants who work hard to bring you great products like the Illegal Alien Costume which features a prison jump suit, alien mask, and green card. Now apart from the green card which makes no sense because I have never heard of an illegal alien with a valid green card that costume would go from 66% relevant to the subject down to 33% relevant by if illegal were replaced with undocumented making the jump suit lose its relevance before sinking down to zero by replacing alien with immigrant thus making the mask useless for imitating someone in a country illegally. Who would buy an "Undocumented Immigrant Costume" with a space alien mask? Nobody would and that costume maker would need to find a new job.
There are others who depend on illegal aliens for their business who are less dependent on proper vocabulary like attorneys, Google, and law enforcement. Lawyers spend good money on ads containing the proper term "illegal aliens" because they know that illegal aliens will pay them good money to help them find loopholes in immigration laws. Search Google for "illegal aliens" and you will find plenty of AdWords customers bidding on the phrase. Finally, law enforcement must constantly employ new officers who would be unemployed if they were not needed to handle calls from people reporting illegal aliens.
Conclusion
Illegal aliens are, have always been, and always will be illegal aliens no matter how undocumented they may appear to be until they respect the legal citizenship process. Only then will they cease to be illegal aliens and become regular aliens in countries legally.
