Thread: Children’s Health Insurance what the +++

Indeed, the cost of poor Children's Health Care would be significantly reduced by restricting access to ONLY US CITIZENS. Alas, California tried such a restriction (prop 187) in 1994 and only received years of litigation.

Additional cost reduction aspects if illegal immigration laws were enforced:
1) Health care costs, in general, would be reduced due to reduction of uninsured illegal immigrants' use of free-of-charge US health services (via emergency rooms, etc.).
2) The number of poor US Citizen (non-anchor) children would be reduced because wages of working class US Citizens would be increased.

Welcome Annie!

I read that boosh was going to veto it and hopefully they won't have enough votes to override it.

Did I hear this right that SCHIP would give all illegal immigrants the right to my Tax dollar ?????

Yes, you heard that right. AND money is going to be taken away from some programs that deal with the elderly and vets. I think it was Jeff Sessions who said that adults can continue under the program if they have a serious illness or whatever. Well, that could include ALOT of people. And these programs are also extending better DENTAL AND EYECARE FOR CHILDREN. Hell, I have to pay a fortune just to have my teeth cleaned.
I DONT WANT TO SPEND MY TAX MONEY PAYING FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS HEALTH CARE.

Chuck Schumer admitted on Chris Wallace's Fox News Sunday that 700,000 ADULTS (many without children) are presently enrolled in this scam! Does anyone think these people will be "weeded out"?

Schumer said that NINE MILLION KIDS are UNINSURED!!!! MORE LIES!!! Low income kids are already covered under MEDICAID! And there are dozens of FREE healthcare plans for those who do not qualify for Medicaid that are not even being implemented because the parents are too lazy (or stupid) to investigate their options! CA has a giveaway called HEALTHY FAMILIES!

And one more thing... why should anyone earning $83,000/yr. qualify for welfare? These people probably already have private ins. but they will undoubtedly cancel their private ins. and go on the government dole!

***check out the SCHIP commercials...NOT ONE HISPANIC KID in any of the commercials! Who do they think they're fooling???
