I've been browsing the YouTube videos looking for a good interview to post that would be both informative and recent. I stumbled across US Mexican Border Health Needs, a more recent account of the health issues along the border region. In the video the Head of the Health Initiative of the Americas speaks about the reasons for mass migration, inequality of economics along the border and various health issues that are an effect of this. In Mexico, health care is a right outlined clearly in the constitution; Universal health care for every citizen. Although it might not be the best system, the care is there for the citizen. In America, the video explains that health care is a service not a right. The United States needs a Mexican workforce? I don't know about this speculation the video makes. Sure there are going to be a large number of baby boomers retiring, but I believe the population is going to be adequate to replace them. And what about the millions of immigrants already in America? Well, please watch the video interview and determine the facts presented for yourself. Thanks!
