Sorry to do this, but I have to pull the trigger on the “I Told You This Was A Problem Waiting To Happen” gun: how wide spread would the zOMG-we-can-stop-it coming Swine Flu pandemic if we didn’t have so many freaking illegal aliens running around from the country that virus came from? Would we still have a full pandemic? Odds are, yes – Mexico is a popular travel location and a number of people from the wintery parts of North America, but would it be a full blown panic that takes up the first 15 minutes of every news broadcast if there wasn’t for the unmentioned threat that is exasperated by the millions of people now in the country that skipped the INS process and don’t have access to medical coverage?
Looks like the non-hippie government officials that were opposed to relaxing immigration or – better yet – enforce the existing law against unregulated immigration missed the target but hit the tree… not quite the problem the expected but it is a problem.
Yeah, they may have missed the target but they blew the tree clear outta the ground.
