I couldn't agree more. I have studied epidemiology and general medical
as a past time for years, so I know exactly what you mean.
But its the "politically correct" crowd that keeps protecting these
immigrants, who we pay more for in taxes then they make up for in
what little they do pay in sales taxes, since they don't pay wage
taxes.
Overall its been a huge benefit to the US businesses who pay them
dirt cheap wages, but with all the food contamination over the last
decade one never hears a peep about it coming from this disease vector
at all.
Once again we cant talk about that because its "racist" to want to be
disease-free.
BTW, Mexican border patrol routinely shoots Guatemalans who get
caught and don't pay the "mordida" (a bribe) to the honest Mexican
(The real Spanish as the top dogs in MEX are not of native indian mix)
police who allow them to continue on into the USA.
Funny, but my ancestors had to go through Ellis Island at the turn of
the 20th century and if they didn't pass medical muster it was back to
the "old country" for many European immigrants. No exceptions allowed.

Once again we agree. Back in the old days this never would have been
allowed, but for reasons above the PC crowd must think they are immune
to TB or other communicable diseases, that many of these people carry.

I think the Mexicans would adopt a "shoot to kill policy" on their
southern border if this happened, but in no way should they be
allowed to infect us no matter what.

As before, its a simply too PC to make mention of. They wont ask Obama
about it either. The US businesses depend on this cheap labor. They
work at best at US minimum wage, with NO benefits, meaning no
check-ups.
The big boys just love it, no matter how many Americans get sick from
unwashed hands and other third world behaviors that allow for the
transmission of bacteria and viruses in our environment and our food
supply.
