just wait
once we have a reported case in Washington D.C.,
you'll see congress get serious about it
My suspicion about what's going on is that the Obama team has been wanting an excuse for sending tens of billions of dollars of US Tax Payer money to Africa. They think Ebola is their excuse, but know they won't be politically able to do it unless Americans think of Ebola as a problem that threatens themselves here at home. Thus team Obama has so loosened the normal safeguards (such as refusal to bar travel to the US from Ebola hotspots) as to ensure that there will be enough cases in the US that Americans will demand that the government does something. That "something," Americans will be told, can only be to address Ebola at its source (central Africa), and that only by sending tens of billions of dollars there, i.e., "We've got to fight Ebola
there so we don't have to fight it
here." It's called "
Problem/Reaction/Solution."
