60 Minutes and The Border Fence

Watched 60 Minutes last night - the ole boy was in a good mood when the show started, and then:

a) First story had to do with a drug (name nor result is important) - evidently this drug was killing people.  The message of the story?  The FDA should have banned the drug years ago.  No mention of when a new drug is invented and people are clamoring for useage and the FDA is too slow to approve.  Bad government and consequently bad U.S.A.

b) Second story had to do with how absolutely wonderful it is in Denmark. Everything is free to include tuition, medical etc. etc. etc.  Easy to draw the conclusion.  Bad ole U.S.A.

c) Story three had to do with a young maestro from Venezuela - quite talented I might add.  He had / has been hired to lead the orchestra in Los Angeles (as in U.S.A.).  Thrust of the story?  What wonderful opportunities he provides in Venezuela as opposed to our oppressed chillren here.  Bad ole U.S.A.

I have to draw the conclusion we do NOT need any border fences as long as we have 60 Minutes spewing their shtick.  Nobody will want to come here - will they??????
