I work at an airport and remember a couple of months ago, during winter break, student friends heading to Cancun, Mexico. At the time there was a travel alert to Mexico because of the drug wars being in full swing and bloody. Amazingly this didn't deter the party goers from going to Mexico to party their behinds off!
That means that danger does not deter spring breakers from going to their party Mecca and partying. So why are we shocked that suddenly we have a spread of Swine flu from Mexico? We should have warned about the flu rather than gun toting thugs that kill for a drug deal.
Drug cartel, no problem, swine flu problem! If we heeded the government's warning about the drug wars, we could have spared the USA from an early Swine flu pandemic.
Common sense isn't very common and most people make wrong and costly decisions that effect the rest of us.
