Tough sh!t.
No it means they no longer get free Medicaid or government sponsored private health insurance.
That begs the question why are we importing people so poor they can’t provide their own medical coverage?
Yeah, right. Tell that to the throngs of illegals who have been caught here two and three times and then appear up on our doorstep a week or a month later.....it's a BS argument. Does anyone think an illegal gives a crap about getting singled our by some government paperwork miasma? If they got denied, they'd just reapply with another fake name and SSN.......
Probably, then they’ll hunt around until they find another freebee program and glom onto it and suck it dry - no biggie, taxpayers will pay for it!
They’ll just go to any hospital in the country and not get turned away....just like the old days.
They didn’t lose a damned thing.
They’ll still go to hospitals and get care for free just like they always have.
Didn’t a certain congressman get badgered into apologizing for calling Obama liar when he said illegal immigrants would never get Obamacare benefits?
legal or illegal aliens?
Only permanent residents should be referred to as “immigrants.” I know societal forces are pushing to call them immigrants just as they have succeeded in changing the meaning of “gay.” Immigrants, that is permanent residents, are eligible or every benefit of citizenship except voting.
These others are “illegal aliens,” and we should make a point of call them that!
They will just continue to flood our Emergency Rooms for general medical care.
My sister works at a children’s hospital, and this has been a huge issue for years. It takes away service from people who are truly in need of care and increases wait time.
INS should start raiding hospital emergency rooms. imho
Good. Maybe they’ll go back to their crummy home countries.
Instead, they just show up at the emergency room. Please explain the difference to a producing taxpayer.
Third World parasites slobbering at the US public trough need to be seen against this document. Read on.
A sworn affidavit by Mexicos consul general to a Texas court admits that Mexicos official policy is to encourage its poor people to migrate here illegally in order to access the USs generous welfare system......declaring that Mexico is responsible to protect its nationals wherever they may be residing.
This explosive document filed in Texas by the government of Mexico adds fuel to the debate touched off by Donald Trump.....
THE MONEY QUOTE A footnote states that Mexican nationality is granted to children born abroad of a Mexican born parent. IOW, anchor babies born in the US retain their parents Mexican nationality.
A sworn affidavit by Mexicos consul general admits that Mexicos official policy is to encourage its poor people to migrate here illegally in order to access the USs generous welfare system......declaring that Mexico is responsible to protect its nationals wherever they may be residing,
The Mexican consuls sworn testimony asserts that My responsibilities in this position include protecting the rights and promoting the interests of my fellow Mexican nationals and The main responsibility of consulates is to provide services, assistance, and protection to nationals abroad.
Ergo, Mexicos assertion of continuing jurisdiction over its nationals abroad, is inconsistent with any claim to automatic US citizenship merely by reason of birth on US soil.
=====================================================
MEXICO IS SLOBBERING AT THE US PUBLIC TROUGH The "impoverished" Mexicans here send BILLIONS of US tax dollars collected under multiple identities BACK to Mexico. The federales are getting a huge cut of that. Prolly Mexico also gets a fee for letting other countries use their border as a gathering place to slither into the US.
=====================================================
Trump accurately tells Americans oil-rich Mexcio is ripping us off royally......and is pocketing billions from deal after deal. This is in addition to millions in US foreign aid to "help" them w/ then the drug cartel problem.
======================================================
NOW GIMMEE THIS AGAIN Mexico's official policy is to send their impoverished classes over the border to ride the US gravy train...but declares that Mexico is responsible to protect its nationals wherever they may be residing.
OK....comprende, amigo.
Now tally up the welfare bill and send it to Mexico.
Key word in the article is “”””””” believes””””” as they are not sure that the canceled insurance covered legal immigrant they just “ believes” it did.....so I in turn believes it most likely covered illegals also
Eligible or not they get free healthcare.
Insurance only matters to the providers.
President Obama?! What are you doing on Free Republic? If this isn’t Obama why are you using his talking points?
The difference is that we should not be importing a class of people who are not self sufficient. We have lots of people in this country who are in need of help with their medical insurance and coverage and we have finite dollars.Several people on this board are in programs that range from VA Benefits to Medicare and Medicaid for any number of reasons and most here are native born.
Those who show up at the ER with no means of paying should be held for ICE and deported back to their countries of origin once treated, even if they are legal residents. They should be shipped COD by the cheapest means necessary. A bill provided to their countries Embassy along with a removal of the dollars from their aid packages would go along way to showing our sincere disgust with their poorly run countries.
We are not heartless to those who need help, we simply cannot provide for every sick immigrant legal or otherwise.
We as a republic, regardless of our wealth have no responsibility to take anyone from any other country. Those we chose to allow to come here should be significantly better than the average person already here. Meaning they should at the least be self sufficient, tax positive members of the community.
if they lose all of the benefits which Obama has illegally provided, and the current immigration law is strictly enforced, many will deport themselves.
I don't understand your personal attack on me.
My point is that calling pre-paid Medicare insurance is just another word for the dole. We pay either way--either in taxes or increased premiums. Why would you take that for support of Obama's talking points? He once said something like that, but really, his idea is to hide these payments by calling them insurance. He says its a good thing, I say it's subterfuge.
By the way, the ER would be a great place to scoop up aliens for deportation by ICE, I agree.
I mistyped “medicare” when I meant Medicaid. Whoops.
