Thread: Budget Crunch Cuts Illegal Immigrants' Health Care

There should be no health care given to an illegal except on an emergency basis. Anything else only encourages the illegal invasion.

The question that wasn't answered in the article was is how are they now going to identify them, if they previously weren't asking?

If they change their policy on asking, many employees would purposely not cooperate as they don't want them to lose their benefits.

Barrios needs to pack up and get the hell out of here. ICE needs to track her down and deport her and make sure that child goes with her.

I'm so sick of these whining people. It's why their countries all suck, because they're whining nomad roamers that do nothing but roam the countryside looking for a hand-out and a place to squat until they suck it dry and then they move on to another spot.

I have the figures. According the CBO and GAO cities as Houston spend 660 million dollars, Dallas 475 million dollars and LA 444 million dollars annually for illegal alien health care and the costs rise as 5,000 to 10,000 illegally cross the border every week. Meanwhile this government of, by and for illegal aliens cuts medicare and medicaid for senior citizens, veterans, indigent Americans and just expanded SCHIP to include illegal aliens who need now only provide an easily stolen social security number for benefits. Obama is looking at forcing veterans to pay for their health care for service connected disabilities as combat injuries. I guess this is part of Obama's agenda to socialize our health care system while making it available and affordable to illegal aliens.

Cost of illegal immigration in California estimated at nearly $9 billion >>> California's nearly 3 million illegal immigrants cost taxpayers nearly $9 billion each year. Educating the children of illegal immigrants is the largest cost, estimated at $7.7 billion each year, according to the report. Medical care for illegal immigrants and incarceration of those who have committed crimes are the next two largest expenses measured in the study. Jack Martin, who wrote the report, said Thursday that the $9 billion figure does not include other expenses that are difficult to measure, such as special English instruction, school lunch programs, and welfare benefits for American workers displaced by illegal immigrant workers. http://www.nctimes.com/articles/2004/12 ... 2_5_04.txt
