To add more American disgrace, I am very much aware of an American Indian, more native to America likely than any of us, out of work, diagnosed with cancer, applying for assistance. Getting help even with food stamps was doomed, so the applicant suggested that she was one of the minority. "Oh no." the social worker responds, "we only get one or two native american applications a year. That is not enough here to count as a minority."


Folks, get down into the trenches and discover the real discriminations going on!! It is not happening to illegal aliens, it is being done daily to real Americans. (I am of european descent, should it make a difference to anyone.)


I know of another case where an older American needed artery surgery. Only social security for income, and not old enough for medicare. Hospital refused admission without some form of payor on board, even the hospitals chief of surgery encouraged the hospital to take him (was that Dr's patient.) Finally when the hospital's social worker said there is not one way that I can help you, the frustrated patient responded, "I bet if I was an illegal you'd help me." Unashamedly the hispanic social worker replied "Oh, yes I have many programs for those. You would have been taken care of."

America: Land of the free illegal alien!!!!!!

I beieve the dangers illustrated in this story fully!!!!!!
