Thread: L.A.: "We have the right to health services,"

My 20 year-old granddaughter is a college student and works part-time at Wal-Mart. She has no access to any sort of group health insurance. In addition to providing financial assistance for her education, we must carry an individual policy on her for health care. Although, it is the best policy available (BCBS), it has lousy benefits with a $500 deductible, huge co-pay and no prescription drugs. It is primarily to guard against a catastrophic event and also to get the charges for health care reduced to the insurance rate. Now it appears that an illegal immigrant in the same circumstances could receive free health care. OUTRAGEOUS.

The American taxpayer is being treated as the CASH COW.

Mexico will never be able to shed its corruption and become a thriving country as long as it continues to believe it has the right to shake down the American taxpayer.

This 'program' is a symbol of all that is wrong in Mexico......shift responsibility for your inadequacies to the US, make Americans pay, then claim you are helping your own unwanted citizens who you pushed out of your country, all while gladly accepting their remittances. And the US and such scummy politicans as Kennedy are the 'enablers.'

Hernandez, a housecleaner, and her boyfriend, a gardener, said they rarely go to the doctor because of treatment costs and fear of deportation. But after a visit to the Mexican Consulate last week to get her consular ID card, Hernandez now knows she can get affordable insurance and free access to some government health services.

I know of educators with families who are having a hard time paying for medical insurance, yet these illegal bastards are getting reduced cost or even free services?? What in the hell is wrong with this picture??

One word in the posting sums it all up, "lunacy".

"We're filling the blanks…. The consulate is the prime location to disseminate that information to the Mexican community."

Notice how they say "Mexican community"? They admit these are Mexican Nationals, yet it is somehow the responsibility of American taxpayers to foot the bill. Of course no offer by the Mexican government to help pay the costs for their citizens healthcare. But they have no problem when they send the billions of dollars back home to Mexico. These moochers have some nerve, demanding we pay for their lowlife citizens' medical care, especially when any American visiting in Mexico who needs emergency medical care is left to die on the street if they don't have the money to pay, in cash, up front for any treatment.

Here in San Diego, every year we hear stories of local residents who, while in Mexico get into car accidents, etc. and are denied any medical care unless they pay in cash first, sometimes even leading to deaths, due to their refusal to provide any treatment whatsoever. Is this hypocritical or what? Their illegal citizens come here and have countless anchor babies and demand free care. We have tourists who go to Mexico legally and if they need emergency care, they are left to die. Of course no lamestream media reporting on that travesty.
