Border Patrol Shortage isn't caused by what you might think
« on: November 09, 2017, 07:10:26 AM »
The U.S. Border Patrol is losing agents faster than it can hire them, according to a new audit released Wednesday that said competition with other federal law enforcement and the difficulty of passing a polygraph test have sapped the agency of nearly 2,000 agents it’s supposed to have.

That was a problem for every employer...twenty years ago!

Yeah, probably still bad if not worse...

To get/stay on a construction job site, there are three requirements:  pass the drug test, show up every day and show up on time.  Shocking how few can/will do that today.

Yeah.

But in latter day America, thanks to Progs and Prog-appeasers...they have created a populace so devoid of common sense, decency and character...that the lowest (and I mean low) denominator has taken hold...anything actually requiring effort or accountability is an alien concept...

Their banner in such situations is -



...and they wait for the nanny-state and co-enablers to support their dead asses...

Until all this crap gets sorted out...



...all we can do in the meantime is offer a helping foot!
