Why aren't our legislators as concerned with legal immigrants coming in to this country, eligble to apply for a social security card within two weeks of their arrival, and then eligible to apply for "free" healthcare upon receipt of the social security card. They then use the card to pay for the birth of their new born children, whose health care the state (we the taxpayer) then pays for. Why aren't they concerned with all the newly arrived immigrants in this country eligible to receive medicare even though they didn't pay into social security, not to mention the cost of healthcare for illegals. What about the cost of the care of children born out of wedlock and their welfare mothers?

Also consider the cost of getting old in and staying alive in America.

Meanwhile, I haven't been to a doctor in seven years.

STOP THE INSANITY!!!!!!

(my apologies for anyone getting pinged again)

&%&^%^%* This...........the MSA, thus smokers are already paying for this. The state already made an agreement with the tobacco companies to pay for this by charging more to smokers.

This is total bogue Bravo sierra.

It's late, I'm tired, and although I've read through the thread to this point --- there are more than a few comments I will be looking forward to responding to in the morning.
