That being said, I've stated my position here before. Overhaul the immigration system here to allow anyone in who can actually find a job. No job? No entry. That is step one. Step two involves enforcing that legal process by absolutely destroying any company willfully employing illegals. Dry up the income which is the motivation for illegals coming in the first place. Step three involves creating truly painful penalties for those caught here illegally. Incarceration? Yep, in tent cities. When they are released they will be returned to the airport within their country of origin that is furthest from US borders.

I wasn't actually going anywhere in particular with that post. I just think it's an ethical and moral dilemma caused by laws which don't allow for such borderline (literally) issues.
Personally, I think it'd be better if we had a ship patrolling the straight in order to stop Papuans from making landfall in Australian territory, however the issue is not just about a boat to stop illegal landfall.
Anyway, I'd rather the disease be stopped where it enters than to be permitted to flourish in our tropical climate.
