Chart of the day: Illegal aliens get WHAT? (Workers Comp for Illegal Aliens -- OUTAGEOUS!!!)
Michelle Malkin ^ | 05/28/2008 | Michelle Malkin

Posted on 05/28/2008 9:53:19 AM PDT by KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle

Reader A.F. e-mails the chart of the day. He writes: “Michelle, I work peripherally for the insurance industry and get the industry’s magazine National Underwriter. The May 8 issue contains a cover story titled: “Workers Comp for Illegal Aliens Sparks Debate Among the States.” A box within the text describes which states already provide WC for illegal aliens: “CA, FL, NV, NY, TX and UT expressly include illegal aliens in the WC coverage” —- UTAH??? So you can come to the US, work illegally, complain of headaches caused by a little slip and fall and you can go on drinking Dos Equis with my tax dollars for the rest of your natural life. What a country!”

I’ve mentioned the illegal alien workers’ comp scheme before in immigration speeches over the years and have been met with skepticism. The trend has only exploded since I first reported on it.

You have got a whiz bang solution.

Deny him his benefits from workers comp, which he ultimately paid for, then he can be treated at the emergency room, at taxpayer expense.

I can give you two reasons why illegal aliens should be covered under worker’s comp.

Come again...?

If ANYONE thinks the governments of this country are not TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL, this is a classic example.

Yes, outrageous. You commit a crime and you get worker’s comp. Next step: workers comp for other criminals.

Awwww. Breaks my heart to see a criminal ultimately not benefit from breaking the law, it does.

I may sniffle. Seriously.

Already have. That's how I was so easily able to point out the inherent idiocy, therein.

Just make it illegal to hire an illegal and the WC issue will resolve itself.

“Worker’s Comp insurance in expensive. Not covering them gives a company a big incentive for hiring illegals.”

In New Jersey employers are required to maintan WC coverage on all employees regarless of status. Should an employer fail to maintain coverage and a worker is injured, then the state picks up the tab via an uninsured employer’s fund.

That’s a pretty bad solution. Mine is to treat him once on the business owner’s dime, then deport his illegal rear end back to Mexico/Guatemala/ElSalvador/Haiti/Ireland/Africa or wherever the hell he came from. And charge the SOB for his transportation.

The truth of the matter is the millionairs in washington have their money in euros and intend to bankrupt the country to make a dictatorship with them at the top.

Money is not enough, when power is to be hand too.

So they bait the trap with cheese to bring out as many rats as possible. Then the get the homeowners to beg for a differfent system.

Like passports to cross the borders, (Your papers please...), Hitler would be proud.

Funny thinking that the lack of passports would cause an illegal to stop coming into the country, when stopping free cash handouts will obviously halt the flow.

As long as it pays more to be illegal, more will be illegal.

Once they get the police powers, they will lock down the country so hard illegals cannot travel, nor can citizens.

Welcome to the New World Order...

I went in on a venture with my brother. He insisted on hiring Invaders. When one of his Invaders saw the end of the job coming, he cut himself on a saw. Although my brother paid for his medical expenses, the Invader filed a Workers Comp complaint here in California. The Invader went to a Chiropractor (for a cut) and my brother is liable for all expenses when the Invader decides he is cured.
It has been 5 months now, Just a note to all of you that place monetary values over your own country.

I can give you 2 reasons why illegal aliens should be deported:

1. They broke the law by entering this country illegally.

2. They are breaking the law by staying here illegally.

It's hilarious.

As if someone with a valid tourist or work visa gets up at seven in the morning in order to hang out-for the next five to six hours-in front of a Home Depot drinking Cuervo Gold and waiting for a shady contractor to pick him up.

However, it sounds like you are keeping her used, formerly wet, toilet paper you got from the restroom she visited where you got the gum.

The truth is, most of the millionaires we send to Washington care very little about you and me and don’t mind bankrupting the country in the process with their various self-serving agendas.

Ding, ding, ding! There it is, stop FR.

We have the FR Post of the Day
