Oh, wait. You mean this isn't a story about quarantining tubercular Mexican invaders in the U.S.? Rats.

Borders, literally, define a nation. No borders, no nation. So, as far as FedGov is concerned, illegals aren’t invaders because the Feds have given up on the idea of a border.
And no, it is easier for the Republicrats to go after sheeple Americans than illegals who have shown themselves contemptuous of Federal government, which is kind of fair, or equal in a way.

Instead, public health interventions should be seen as a "stewardship" role where proportional intervention was only taken when other measures had failed.I just hope my "steward" has a great sense of humor... and huge nay-nays!

I had to look that one up...
WOW
http://www.pierrelemieux.org/artproctor.html
“”After reading The Nazi War on Cancer, the careful reader will be well positioned to understand why fascism requires strong public health policies. For the fascist State needs “valuable human material” — or, as we would say today, healthy “human resources”. Nazi slogans reported by Proctor are more explicit than what present-day crusaders would dare to employ: “Your body belongs to the nation!” “You have the duty to be healthy!” “Food is not a private matter!” “”
The above was written in 1999, now ‘present-day’ crusaders are using the phrase.

Step one-get rid of the FDA, that would improve public health immensely!

Thanks for the ping.
"But the government has a duty to look after the health of everyone and sometimes that means guiding or restricting our choices."
To anyone who knows history this statement will strike fear but to anyone who has swallowed universal health care it makes perfect sense.
Check out the liberal linguistics: it's not a nanny state but rather greater good and stewardship...you know "for the children". This crap is right out of the Communist play book.
