Strange this story makes no mention of SSI payments, which elderly immigrants can collect if they never paid into our Social Security system. And I wonder who is paying for those adult day care and home care services.

Yeah. I remember Russian immigrants in Sacramento in the 90’s bringing granny straight form the airport to the ER to have all her health concerns addressed since it was “free”.

Our immigration system allows these elderly people to join their kids. They then get medicare, SS, and all the other benefits.
Please keep in mind that most of their kids are making lots of money and see no problem collecting these benefits.
This type of chain immigration is very costly.
We need to develop some spine..but the lobby for this type of immigration is very effective..since they have money.
The rest of us pay for it.

Don't forget we also import people with diseases who cannot work. But try to get some help for yourself - a taxpaying citizen - if you need a temporary hand up. It won't be there.
