Questions like this will be unnecessary once the Communists get their single payer plan, that will include healthcare, employment, and all payments on property. It’s the Obamao way. The government will take care of us all. Need a car loan? Get it at Obamao motors. Need medical care? Whup out your Obamao card. Need food? Get your Obamao rations. Need a home? Go to Obamao Mortgage and Securities to qualify. It will be the American way. Tired of having to thumb through your wallet to get the right Obamao card? You can have your Obamao number embedded into your wrist or forehead. Shopping is as easy as waving your hand over a scanner.

Interestingly, though, the Times' mentions nothing about the responsibility of Mexico's government toward its own citizens, whom it all but encourages to immigrate illegally to this country

All but? From what I've read, Mexico's government openly encourages illiegal immigrants to come here.

“Who is to blame for this heart breaking situation?”

Uh...the illegals? Calling Captain Obvious.

Why not let the bleeding hearts over at the United Nations pay for the health care of illegals?

The US pays about 25% of the expenses of the UN anyway, plus a lot more in foreign aid, etc. It would still be US taxpayers’ dollars paying for the care, but it would be coming out of the HUGE slush fund controlled by the UN that we already pay into.

Alternative plan would be to ship the illegal aliens back to their home countries and let them get health care there.

The cities and states that give them sanctuary should pay up.

As is true with all people, the ultimate, and only, responsible person for health care is the person themselves. The illegals came here illegally, they should be given enough care to stabilize them if they have life threatening illnesses or injuries and then sent to whatever country they came here from. THEY are responsible, not the US taxpayer.

You had it right the first time. The only correct usage of “who’s” is a contraction of “who is.”

This is why this “health care reform” is a farce and will never work. It’s the elephant in the room no one will talk about.

Illegals or citizens, pay your own way or quit taking up space on this planet!

This article begs the wrong question. To answer this question,one should first ask.. Whose responsibility would it be to pay for such services in their home country? Then one would quickly come to the conclusion that no one would pay in their home country - they would simply die. Now the question becomes.. why because they break the law and come to the US should they be treated any better than if they stayed in their home country?? This may seem cold - but I think some logic must prevail. Comments?

Q: Whose responsibility is the health care of illegal immigrants?

A: The immigrants who came here illegally first, second their countries of origin.

NOT.... I REPEAT .... NOT THE U.S. TAXPAYER!!!!!

==

The financial responsibility should lie with each individual member of Congress that opposes their deportation as well as the employers of illegals.

Articles like this make my blood boil. I struggle to pay hundreds of dollars a month for medical insurance that only pays 80%. Thank God I don’t need kidney dialysis because I probably couldn’t afford it even with insurance. Yet illegals waltz into this country and think NOTHING of taking free care.

What’s more, I have never seen ONE article where ANY illegal alien expressed a shred of gratitude for all the free care this country provides them, OR expressed the slightest sympathy for the Americans who have to pay for it, and the Americans who suffer when hospitals and emergency rooms in their areas shut down. Illegals have an enormous sense of entitlement, and Americans just don’t matter anymore.

How much more are we going to put up with?
