What is "free" about universal health care? We have it already. The
illegals get free health care and the rest of us pay for it.

They're either deadbeats or simply cannot afford coverage. They come
in all colors, nationalities and religions.

Most of the poor in this country are working poor. You may want to
look into it before you spout your next bumper sticker.

If you are counting the illegals as part of the "poor" then there is
your problem. If they were eliminated from our heath care system
entirely, the poor *Americans* would be a minor burden.

You'd also be paying three times the amount for fruits, vegetables and
a ****load of other items that are subsidized by cheap wages to low
income workers.

You pay one way or you pay the other. One way or the other, you're
gonna pay.

Capiche?

No. Their free health care, education, and lack of income tax payments,
far outweighs the savings of their cheap labor.

Cite?

You know that their labor savings isn't documented (much like them) but
I think you are smart enough to at least know that they are a HUGE drain
on heath care and our education system. I'm also pretty certain that
you are smart enough to know their lack of contributions in income
taxes, payroll taxes, SS, and Medicare are also HUGE. That alone should
be obvious to any reasonable person as well as the relatively minor
hourly payroll savings for their employers.

If you want to include the costs of incarceration for all of the illegal
criminals, it's even worse.
