When Exactly did it become the USA's Job to Provide Health Care to ALL Illegals?
Question:
Answer:
Never put a movie star in office! Great, so more can move there and suck the system dry. I hope that state falls in the ocean. The less illegals the better
The US barely provides health care for Americans.
But I agree with you, illegal immigrants don't contribute to the country in the form of taxes so why should they get the benefits that taxes bring?
It already exists - in the emergency rooms and many have had to close down. Others you can't get into - they're being used by the illegals for primary care, colds and minor cuts.
It became our job when we became bad people for being such a successful country.
When the republicans decided that cheap labor was better for their corporate benefactors.
I'm not even going to touch this one."the voters", you didn't vote I take it.

So, basically, when an illegal uses a false social security card the goverments takes all the taxes they have paid (SS tax and state taxes as well as federal) and just gives it right back to the illegal guy/gal? You got to be kidding me?? Where do they buy stuff from tax free???? I got to go there too. The problem is not the illegals, it's the COMPANIES hiring them, obviously if there was no work then why would they even want to come here?
This forum will not solve this problem, nor will complaining about it.
We did say no and I can't believe he is doing this.
I think he broke more than his leg in that skiing accident.
It came about when liberals decided having health insurance is a right. First it starts with giving it to the kids, after all only cruel people oppose it for kids. Then it is for all people. Then it is for illegals. It is a cycle that cannot stop. This is why I am so against big government anything. Once you start, where do you stop?
I say the same thing about abortion. First it was legalized, then we have euthanasia, then we have people aborting children because he/she has a birth defects, and now parents will use abortion to determine sex, hair color, etc.
thats absolutley ridiculous, i havent heard of that yet. illegals shouldnt even be here, if they all joined together and tried to reform their own governement and tried to model it after the US instead of invading and overpopulating our country the world would be a better place for everyone.
Once a person shows up at a hospital, they have to stabilize that person and cant ship them to another hospital until a doctor accepts the patient. That is the Cobra law.
When an illegal goes to an emergency room, they cannot refuse to treat them, so, they never get paid and that is why me and you pay $4.00 for a Tylenol, to recover some of their losses.
The only way everyone will have health care is to make them pay for it, keep the insurance companies from dumping people because of past medical conditions, and reign in the medical costs.
Nothing is free and someone, usually the tax payer, gets the short end of the stick. Arnie has a good idea, but still, someone has to pay for it. If the people are on welfare, then they need to pay for their insurance or for their health-care.
Best option is to send them back south of the border, bring our troops in from Germany, Japan and England to guard our borders against illegal crossings.
Don't worry legal tax paying Americans will pay for it. We are told Social security is running out for legal Americans but the president wants to give it to illegals now. It's already in the works to sell our super highways. The day Bush was elected was the day America died and his republican congressmen and governors are the pallbearers.
"When the republicans decided that cheap labor was better for their corporate benefactors"
Then why didn't Clinton clean it up when he was in office? You morons act like not a single Democrat runs a large corporation. Grow up!
I agree with the guy who said we're being punished for being a successful country. Pathetic, isn't it?
I used to live in Cali - back when the voters said NO MORE handouts to illegals.then the damned federal courts blocked it. It's not so much the politicians we need to watch out for - it's the damned COURTS.
Wouldn't that money be far better spent on AMERICANS?
Arnie is a closet Democrat that is now a lame duck Governor.
It'll never get through the state legislature because they'll have to declare it as an additional tax, and as such would require a 2/3 majority to pass which will never happen. Take the money they would spend on this idiocy and build the wall to keep the illegals out. Then start deporting the illegals already here by the trainload.
If anyone had illusions about government pretending to listen to the people, they only need to move to California.
ILLEGALS in California shouldn't get any free rides.
California/USA should let them suffer like the LEGALS and AMERICANS who don't have health care and can't get GOV'T help cause they earn to much, which happens to be NOT enough to live pay bills, rent, and feed your family.
Oh, and they want YOU the LEGAL and AMERICAN to pay it back. But ILLEGALS get everything free.
The same time it became America's job to police the world.
Everyone's taxes in CA will be raised 3% no matter what u make.. Y not for the illegals.. they just want a better life too.. Join the rest of the USA.. who doesn't want a better life.. My mom has worked all her life (2 jobs for 20 years) and now that she is retired she can't afford to go to the MD.. she's gone off some of her needed meds because she can't pay for them.. I was recently at the ER and their are signs that say "what is an emergency".. not that it matters.. illegals run to the hospital for every little toe ache..rather than spending $2.00 on a bottle of cold medicine they go to the ER at $1000 a whack and we pay for it. I was in the hospital in Nov (very sick).. they ran my insurance card before they would admit me.. If my insurance declined I had to pay 4-5 days up front before they would admit me. How pathetic is that.. I am just curious what the illegals are going to do when all the hospitals shut down but just a few..r they going to drive 3 hours to go to an ER.. probably.
