The Seen and the Unseen
EMTALA
The influx of illegal aliens has serious hidden medical consequences. We judge reality primarily by what we see. But what we do not see can be more dangerous, more expensive, and more deadly than what is seen.

Good article. The politicians have ensured illegals are covered by socialized medicine, a privilege not extended to American citizens. Plus, their "anchor" babies also get free care and when they grow up, free education and all the other wonderful benefits of being an American. Its politically incorrect to posit the immigration system is being gamed and nothing is done to fix it. In fact, the politicians want to open the door to further abuse, exploitation and corruption by illegals at the expense of Americans - unless we stop them.

The influx of illegal aliens has serious hidden medical consequencesNo kiddin. They caused the closing years ago of the closest emergency room to my home. Now the only one still in use is drastically over-crowded.
But I'll bet that doesn't bother bush or the other RINOs one bit.

Worth noting that this well-documented paper was published in the Spring 2005 issue......so we must add 2+ years worth accumulation to each statistic and scenario it uncovers.
To: Cyropaedia
they sure are a sick people who require this much medical attention. I haven’t been to a doctor in more than 12 years.

But I'll bet that doesn't bother bush or the other RINOs one bit. Nope, what's really important is that they are, "bringing people out of the shadows".

My apologies. I goofed.
You're right, it's only gotten worse in the past two years.

The only way to stop them is to take away their power, you take away their power by taking away their money. We need to start a major movement in this country to stop giving them our money. Meaning, we need to stop paying the taxes that feed these monsters.

THis is not only true of illegal aliens but also true of anyone in this country. Lot of entitlement out there.

This is not over yet. Bush refuses to give up this easily. It's his stubborn character. As I predicted he would try to resurrect it and call it something else. We have to keep our guard up. We need to keep the pressure up. We have no choice but to fight. The oligarchy wants cheap labor and a destruction of the middle class and the millionaire democrats want votes they can count on. A marriage made in HELL.
STAGE TWO is to go after the people who hire illegals. Start giving them fines and arresting them. Just catch ten or 100 of them on the nightly news. The magnet will dry up and most of the 12 million will go home by themselves.
As an addendum, we should anonymously call the IRS, people working "off the books" means taxes ain't being paid. Make anonymous fliers and hang them around the neighborhood, name names. It's time to embarrass these bustards, whether they give to the GOP or Rats, we don't need them.
CALL! CALL! CALL! CALL! AND KEEP CALLING TILL THE LINES FRY!
WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! TILL YOU RUN OUT OF INK IN YOUR PEN!
Bombard the Democrats as well, especially the ones that ran on an anti illegal immigration plank and the ones in marginal districts who could be vulnerable. keep pounding on them. This is a bipartisan issue not a Conservative or Liberal issue BUT AN AMERICAN issue.
STOP AMNESTY NOW!! WE CAN DO IT!!

I know all of this, see it every day, and yet reading it again is enough to make my blood boil. I wish George Bush would read it.

Scary. I didn’t make it this far in life to become sick due to some illegal coming across the border.
To: Cyropaedia
It always amazes me how Mexican Nationals are seen in Mexico by a specialist and are told they need surgery but have to pay several thousand for the operation. These parasites will pay to get on a plane and cross our border; then pay the taxi driver to get to an ER; but expect and demand million dollar care for free when they land on in our ER ( The illegal is also a lawsuit threat). Giving out billions of dollars of free care has significantly compromised our emergency medical care for the citizens. Hospitals should close their emergency rooms to limit exposure from illegals stealing health services.
