Spain brings back free healthcare for illegal migrants

Spain's new socialist government promised on Friday it would restore free healthcare for undocumented migrants, a right removed by the former administration as part of cost-cutting.

The move is the latest migrant-friendly initiative by the government of Pedro Sanchez, who offered on Monday to take in a rescue ship that was drifting in the Mediterranean sea with 629 migrants on board. Italy and Malta had refused to let it dock.

The government will draw up a draft law with the proposal, it said, which must be approved by parliament. Although the Socialists have a minority of 84 seats in the 350-member assembly, most parties back the proposal and it seemed certain to be approved.

After more than a week at sea, hundreds of migrants turned away by Italy danced and sang as their ships arrived in the Spanish port of Valencia on Sunday.

Why don't we load our illegals on a boat and ship them to Spain? It's a win/win situation. They want illegals so much, they've opened their ports to them and give them free health-care.

And the European Central Bank will pay for it all with money printing. Great idea!

Well, problem solved! Spain will take all who want to go there. France, Italy and other nations should build better walls and other security in the meantime.

When I lived in Spain, 1981-82, I had many educated friends in Madrid who were not at all fond of the ‘Moros’, and, without shame, described themselves as ‘racist’. By that they simply meant that they were cognizant that their culture and society were superior to that of the Moros, and that they did not want to see more of them in Spain..

It does seem that either the citizenry has changed, or the government is totally out of step with the citizens.

If we give the Trump Administration the best Congress that we can vote for this year, that’s our best chance to remedy the problem with better sorting and ejection facilities and to stem the flood at the same time. How many of us have even looked at the plan developed by the Trump Administration’s and many Republicans in Congress?

The plan is generally to do away with the diversity lottery, end sponsorships of extended family members and other measures in the same direction. It would effectively slow down the crazy rush from southern countries to the U.S.A. to a trickle.

Otherwise, we’re only complaining, while Democrats and their global slaver constituents eliminate the hope for our great-grandchildren to live in a civilized and free country.

How did they specifically define ‘Moros?’

Instead of Moros (from the Philippines), they’re sub-Saharan Africans now. There’s a photo behind this link.

Spain is so nice. ;-) [Irony and sarcasm there. Can you see YouTube videos with your computer?]

Spain has been trying hard to funnel them all into northern European countries. Italy was doing the same, but neighboring nations built barriers against Italy doing that and stopped it for the most part. Merkel’s crew in Germany was trying to push Europe to let more of them in, but she’s encountering some domestic political resistance now (thanks to some great Germans who are working hard to put a stop to it).

So, the situation is somewhat reversed now. The new government in Italy is getting with the program and slowing the migration, but Macron in France just blamed Italy for turning a shipload of Africans away. France didn’t quite make it with the last election but will probably come around with the next big election (faction in favor of that there continuing to grow).

Enough of the division between countries in Europe. Such situations are always overly complicated by the time we see information about them.

Here’s the good part. This is the political force behind the recent positive changes in several European countries. It’s one of their projects for publicity, which work has been bringing the political changes in several countries so far.

The new Italian government won’t have them so I guess the new Spanish government will have to inherit the bushido blade.

These Spaniards are slow learners. There aren't enough devote Christians left in Europe for Reconquista Part II.
