I already post a link from palm beach how illegals with TB have reintroduced it in an area it was killed and causing the destruction of livelihood of many people now - if that person who brought it has 2 kids that become PHD's - does that make up for the loss to potential thousands of people that suffer from the sickness they otherwise would not have caught - your grandfather should be proud of his deception. My grandfather also came here from mexico and fought in the war - there are legal and illegal ways.

Would you have me believe that your personal experience is the average? Or the exception to the average? We can all pick and choose certain histories of certain individuals to further an agenda - but from the aggregate level society building requires a more discerning eye no? I can appreciate wanting a better life, I do too. I may have even done the same thing your grandfather did. Because the ayn rand types stopped having babies I have agreed we need immigration if we want to stay competitive in the world, but some people, like those lazy french who don't work so hard or maybe those swiss don't understand this I think - life is too short to be workaholic all the time no? Perhaps letting the torch of productivity pass to another nation and taking it easy for awhile and not causing social uproar is not such a bad thing eh? I support blocking people like your grandfather that bring in TB - whatever benefit you may feel it was worth, the potential for harm created too much risk. Now if you have invented cheap cure for TB to fix what your grandfather risked - perhaps I could be more lenient - but you and your fellow PHD buddies didn't go into bio science and do that did you?

The degrees of your buddies - can you elaborate in what fields they are in? More liberal arts professors and less bio science doesn't seem to be the right direction to me. I hope to be surprised.
