  Interesting that consular officers can use their own personal discretion to block someone’s visa due to their age or conditions like obesity. I am betting more of America is obese and a net drain on taxpayer funds than immigrants are. So this just strikes me as discriminatory. The fact that it relies on individuals in these jobs deciding what they’re okay with, opens the door wide open to all kinds of abuse.
