November 2, 200718 yr Let's say that I snuck into France and got an underground job with a company there paying less than the going wages. I get hurt while there, go to the hospital and when they ask who is going to pay the bill, I say "France"! Their response? :lol:
November 2, 200718 yr Why dont we just treat them as our brothers in Christ, and heal them for no cost.
November 3, 200718 yr Nobody has answered my question about who really pays this bill? Does the hospital pay it as a loss or does the public?
November 3, 200718 yr Nobody has answered my question about who really pays this bill? Does the hospital pay it as a loss or does the public? Unless the hospital dabbles in the counterfeiting business, the American people pay all hospital bills. Businesses pass all of their expenses to their customers in one way or another, whether they be taxes, salaries, or the costs of treating illegal aliens.
November 3, 200718 yr Why dont we just treat them as our brothers in Christ, and heal them for no cost.Because nothing is free. In other words, you and I pay for it through our tax dollars.
November 3, 200718 yr I have no problem paying for someones illness if they are sick. As you all can tell I am quite the idealist.
November 3, 200718 yr I have no problem paying for someones illness if they are sick. As you all can tell I am quite the idealist. Or sucker, no offense. Why in the world should I have to pay for anyone that is here illegally?
November 3, 200718 yr I have no problem paying for someones illness if they are sick. As you all can tell I am quite the idealist. I am with you. RTS, call me a "sucker," too. We, the hardworking American, also pay for healthcare for children whose parents live on welfare. Some of those parents cannot work, some can. We pay either way. I honestly don't know any illegal immigrants that don't work. Anyone?
November 3, 200718 yr Or sucker, no offense. Why in the world should I have to pay for anyone that is here illegally? Then if believing in unconditional charity makes me a sucker, then I want to be a sucker.:ylsuper::ylsuper:

It seems that their are more illegal immigrants that want to work and put into the system, than American Citizens.
November 3, 200718 yr Then if believing in unconditional charity makes me a sucker, then I want to be a sucker.:ylsuper::ylsuper: Or it might make you a Christian and/or a good human being.
November 4, 200718 yr Then if believing in unconditional charity makes me a sucker, then I want to be a sucker.:ylsuper::ylsuper:I have no problem with you spending as many of your hard earned millions as you want paying for health care for illegal aliens. I do have a problem with my federal government failing to provide basic national security by controlling our borders and then forcing me to pay for the health care of illegal aliens because of its failure. Forcing American taxpayers to foot the bill for illegal aliens' medical care is not charity it is tyrany.
November 4, 200718 yr It seems that their are more illegal immigrants that want to work and put into the system, than American Citizens.You are partly correct. Illegal immigrants are disproportionately put into the (prison) system. They also are a growing part of the gang problem in this country. Few people would dispute that most illegal aliens are hard working people just trying to provide for their families, but we should not ignore the fact that many illegal aliens do not come to this country to make an honest living.
