Try reading my post again.it won't work because bribing will encourage more to come. You won't save anything.
I've never heard a more absurd idea. Why don't you try bribing felons when they're released to make sure they won't commit another crime?
.
LOL no kidding. I know banks should bribe bank robbers after they rob the bank so that they don't rob it again.
Put a sign out front. All would be bank robbers this week only $50,000 not to rob us. No questions asked.
Ivoc, I will address your post and question one last time. I'm becoming quite frustrated with you (and others) who spout all kinds of opinions (and as I said before, sarcastic, pithy barbs) about a very serious topic - and I don't believe even one of you has posted any links, resources, references, or other indications of logical support, nor cogent thought processes.
But to humor you, as well as prove a point, I shall do so here.
First of all, when one is traveling (as you were, as were the foreigners), a health certificate is usually not necessary. Additionally, your allegation is incorrect. Health inspections are NOT just reserved for the poor!
This all changes when a LEGAL immigrant is applying for entry into our country. Ditto for those on Visas. Forgive me, but I thought that was common knowledge!!!
Here are several sources, which I hope should MORE than satisfy you. I don't usually like to stereotype, but the fist week I've spent on CD, learned how to identify the libs and loonies. They're the ones who spout emotion and anger over logical debate...and usually (at least what I've seen in the immigration forums), they haven't supplied "sources"...yet ask everyone else for the same.
So, tell me if these 5 resources suffice: (Do me a favor, please READ them! I'm becoming weary of posting some very information-laden and well-researched articles that no one has read...do their detriment.)
Any country that can save 8 trillion dollars by rewarding some small set of offenders should do so without a thought.
Now if there is not 8 trillion dollars? But could DandDi be wrong? Ohh perish the thought.
***Nope. Check the reference I posted 'way back. Look for it and read for yourself.

The third and fourth reference appear to be the same and the fifth is a 404.
So you did get 3 of 5 right though there appears to be no point to any of them.
The usefulness of a medical check for one coming over from Tijuana escapes me.
I agree it is required if you are a legal refugee. But if you are not?
That's not the question you asked me. See below:

So it is known that well off people who come into the US are OK...you need only worry the poor ones.
Source?
Ivoc, I'm thinking YOU can't keep track of YOUR posts. YOU asked the question above, and I posted links that indicated just WHO is given health screenings. NOT regular travelers, NOT illegals (for obvious reasons, I hope! Or, do I have to explain this to you, too???). Therefore, WHO is left? Why, LEGAL immigrants and those pursuing VISAs!!! I gave you what you asked for. To subvert this, and play your silly games is sophomoric, and typical of a loony left.
And ALL links worked for me. Maybe your computer, like your mind, is going soft.

The idea that laws can't be changed as lvoc claims is insane. laws are written and amended all the time.
Tinman, others as well as I, completely agree with you! This is just about all this man can harp on. I think we should all press our "ignore" buttons! He's become a pesky gnat.

I've already pressed that button, Dandi!
