Is it wonderful that we have to go to a foreign country for cheaper service. Speaks well for America, doesn't it?

All hail King Obama the communists black Muslim terrorists.

My friend in Italy tells me they have much lower prices and much better dentistry there. They built the aqueducts, after all, can probably do xlnt root canals. And bridges.

An acquaintance lives very close to that particular Mexican border town, had all her dentistry done there, is super satisfied with the work and the prices.

This predates Obama by many years.

In the mid 1990s, for example, a DFW TV news did a report on seniors heading to the border to buy semi-annual supplies of common prescriptions. They were going in bus loads from various locations, some from as far away as southern Oklahoma.

Border Patrol knew what they were doing and didn’t ‘inspect’ their packages very thoroughly on their return trips across the border.

Long before there was an Obama, American drugs were cheaper in Latin America and many of them are available, over-the-counter.

People routinely travel from developed nations to less developed nations, to get personal services. That’s what you’re doing, when you, for instance, vacation at a resort on a Caribbean island. All that says about America, is that you pay your service workers more than they would get elsewhere.

Nothing to do with Obama. It’s been happening years and years. We moved to NM in 2002 and lots of people were going down then for medical things, especially dentistry and weight loss surgery.

Are you trying to say this is all Obama's fault?

Then attempting to mislead people makes you part of the reason America's prosperity has declined.
