Cheap and less regulated elective plastic surgery will become “health care” in every mainstream news article as a way to try and redirect from the obvious failings of the administration at the border.

There will be multiple articles bemoaning the harsh realities of US healthcare, especially for minorities, hence they had to risk their life for care in Mexico, etc.

Once you cross that border you have no rights.

I've been jammed up in Mexico by the police and told them if they let me go they would never see me down there again, that was 20 years ago and I've kept my promise.

There’s a large amount of Americans who go for these cosmetic procedures and information is shared online about facilities, costs, etc. It’s honestly shocking that this hasn’t happened more in the past.

Nothing will happen to the cartels as long as politicians continue to take cash from them.

Trump wanted to carpet bomb their cartel headquarters and should have.

I wish we would get tough on the cartels.

The FBI should put out a statement. For every 1 American killed we will kill 10 Narcos.

Though seriously I wish we would just invade Mexico and take their border states and make them like a neutral zone.
Illegals can live there and work but can't cross into US proper.

The CSA wanted Chiuahua and Sonora too bad they didn't get them.

Where's Al Sharpton, BLM and the the other race-baiters? This is right in their wheel-house.

There are places with offices in the US and Mexico. This are the best. You do your consultation in the US and the procedures in Mexico.

Most speak English especially in the medical field.

Medical tourism isn't new. It's just the OT is obviously mostly oblivious to it. I've gone I Mexico for dental implants before.

Though Thailand is better for major work.

The FBI and CIA are infiltrated with cartel members. You really think all these tons of drugs like fentanyl are crossing the border without our government knowing? Our government works side by side with them. That's why they are allowed to exist.

I think it's funny that people here don't realize how many Americans go to Mexico for medical and dental work and rx drugs.


Steroids are a biggie. Lots of meatheads go there.

If by “healthcare”; they mean drugs.



I've had a few friends fly down for surgeries. Better service at their nicer hospitals and significantly cheaper.

I've also had friends run down for "medicine"

People do surgeries in foreign countries all the time. Especially cosmetic stuff.

It’s cheaper. Or doctors are ripping people off.

Legalize drugs, they go out of business.

Our current drug policies create and protect the cartels market.

We can’t even tell gays not to get married or tell men they are not women.

The US is soft soft. The drug cartel would smash us.

It’s easier to get the procedure done in Mexico than in the US supposedly.


I think you mean "cheaper". Probably is if you don't get kidnapped and/or killed.
