According to the OP there was one child with swine flu. Do you get flu shots? They include H1N1 strains.

You're being a little misleading with your exaggerations. With the boarder patrol, there have been a few isolated incidents be it the employee fault or not. Every government organization probably has one issue or another. It doesn't change the fact that they employ thousands of workers and many more apply and don't get selected looking for employment. So yes, I do think people want jobs at the US boarder patrol. And my belief is based on facts and not conservative dreams...

Lolz...

BOTH parties are ignoring the illegal problem. Why? Democrats get votes and Republicans get cheap labor for big business. Neither side cares what happens provided they get what they want out of the deal.

That being said, shouldn't people who are concerned about horrible plagues entering this nation SUPPORT the ACA since it makes it more affordable for people to seek treatment before the plague spreads? I know, I know - poor people don't deserve health care, and illegals were never a problem before "Obama" - right...

He was entering as a permanent resident alien.

Just to be clear.....my X-husband had to pass his health check in Honduras before the USA would grant a visa. (green card)

This is when he entered the US legally.

And I continue to point out that is designed to keep those who will make heavy demands on the US health system, perhaps state funded in the end, from being allowed to immigrate to the US.

It is not a public health issue.

I think that is true.

I thought you questioned if my X had to have a physical.....he did and was expensive......the whole process was expensive.

No I understood. But I was trying to get it clear that we do that for reasons other than public health. Hell it is likely a reason that I cannot move to Canada. My wife is a dual so theoretically we could. But I am reasonably old and have a significant set of ailments. While I am quite functional I would never pass an immigration inspection.
