Schwarzenegger: Outsource prisoners to Mexico

#3  A better idea is to, under American management, outsource our more expensive medical care to Mexico. Things like US built extended care facilities, nursing homes and hospices.

They are nonsensically expensive in the US, and generally deliver a low quality of care, with a low ratio of caregivers to patients. Mexico has a lot of English speaking, qualified medical personnel, a good legal environment, few government regulations, etc.

So instead of grandmother lying in her own feces and urine for eight hours a day, while staring at painted brick walls for entertainment, for $500 a day, she gets two or three people watching over her and taking care of her needs, cooking fresh food, talking with her and keeping her clean, etc., for about $50 a day. And if she needs medical care, she gets it promptly, as well as low priced surgery and prescription drugs.

#2  Not a good decision. Mexico is the house next door that a murderer could easily get out of, cross the border, exact revenge on witnesses to the US crime and then go back into Mexico. If in a US Penitentiary, no worries. We just raise the tarriff on imported tomatoes to cover the cost of the criminals that the Democrats import in from Mexico.

#1  You know, putting the wall up would sort of like be pre-outsourcing at the source.
