Hire a Gulfstream.
Fly her back to Mehhhhicko City.
It’ll be much cheaper.
don’t worry, when mrs. clinton is elected in “08, we will have universal health care.
people from mars and the moon will be coming to our hospitals.
I really don’t like this anchor baby business. I remember one woman last year deliberately got on a plane while in labor, flew to somewhere in the northern US, and ended up delivering the baby on the plane...which was over US airspace at the time. She held it as long as she could to be sure. When they landed, the baby was an automatic American and mommy could stay, of course. This was actually much safer and cheaper than hiring a coyote to smuggle them in. They had air conditioning and peanuts and in-flight movies.
My niece is an OB/GYN who took her pre-med at HAAAAVVAAAAADDD! Needless to say, she emerged from that experience a FLAMING, BLEEDING HEART LIBERAL.
Upon completing her medical training at yet another liberal university, she interned at a hospital near the border in San Diego.
It was there that a mystical transformation took place: She began to connect the heavy deductions from the GROSS EARNINGS for which she busted her butt for as many as 72 virtually sleepless hours in a row with the taxis and jalopies regularly sliding to the curb in front of the ER.
Many of them contained pregnant illegals who won the race to deliver their babies HERE. She caught many of those babies who, under the current — and ERRONEOUS — interpretation of the 14th Amendment were IMMEDIATELY NEW AMERICANS. The mother who, obviously, could not care for the child if she were back in her native land — could not be deported now even if the INS and the political bosses WANTED her deported . And as the mother of a new US citizen, the woman could remain here for about as long as she cared to and that was usually for life.
Most of those patients were welfare recipients and the deliveries were charity cases: The bill for the hospitals and HER services were routinely spread over the bills of those who DO pay. And what the other users of those facilities don’t cover went back to the taxpayers.
And since my niece was now a taxpayer, they were costing HER.
And while she may not exactly be a libertarian, today shes now a LOOONNNNG way from Haaaavaaaaaad.
And just so the bleeders who might see this dont think me some sort of ethnocentric bigot, I submit this problem is MORE than just about illegals.
Before my oldest daughter was born at University Hospital in Cleveland in 1967, I sat in the main lobby as welfare mother-to-be after welfare mother-to-be shuffled through the door to the maternity ER for THEIR free deliveries.
Before WE could take OUR daughter home, I had to cough up over 3 grand. And that was a great deal of dough in 1967, especially for a guy just out of the USAF.
As I wrote the check, I remembered the magazine article Id recently read by a hospital administrator from Massachusetts who admitted that all US hospitals practiced a form of medical Marxism, spreading the costs of care for indigents over the bills of those who DO pay for care. Given the move to socialism here, it probably will never be otherwise: Not counting Byzantine complexity and confusion, government produces and has — NOTHING unless it first takes it from some PERSON. SOMEBODY ALWAYS PAYS.
Look, I have a big enough problem paying for the 3rd and 4th generation slackers and welfare bums who were BORN here.
Its time we stopped paying for those who were not.
"There is a problem with underreporting of how many undocumented women there really are, and they're putting a huge strain on all of the safety-net systems," said Natalie Levkovich, executive director of the Health Federation of Philadelphia. "We're all in the same miserable, leaky boat."
Undocumented women constitute 60 to 65 percent of about 3,000 prenatal patients treated at city health clinics yearly, said Kate Maus, the Philadelphia Department of Public Health's director of maternal, child and family health. Eight years ago, she said, "all of them were insured."
When the liberal rag Inquirer reports this as a big problem, you know there is a tide change occurring.
Since 1997, 14 area hospitals have stopped delivering babies.
Undocumented women constitute 60 to 65 percent of about 3,000 prenatal patients treated at city health clinics yearly,
Eight years ago, she said, "all of them were insured."
Drexel University College of Medicine is using medical school tuition to keep its obstetrics program afloat as it staffs city health clinics
New Jersey, ... use their own money to fund Medicaid coverage for prenatal care for illegal immigrant women. But the $3.8 million - enough for 7,439 women - runs out after only about four months,
Much of their care after that would likely be subsidized by providers,
a pregnant illegal immigrant who had not had prenatal care went to one of his emergency rooms in 2005 with bleeding in her brain caused by preventable conditions. She needed three operations, and her baby was born early and sick. Their care cost the hospital $151,019 , he said, but it got only $23,544
Several worrisome points in this article:
1. Availability of quality health care for Americans is deteriorating, while
2. health care costs for Americans are increasing, while
3. Tuition costs rise to pay for medical care for illegals, which means,
4. Monies which should go towards the future high quality of medical education is being spent now which means,
5. Future quality of health care and medical training is put in jeopardy.
There's the money quote.
Boo flippin' hoo. I'm due to have a perfectly normal delivery of my child in early September, and I have to PAY for everything that Keystone HealthBastards East won't -- up friggin' front. And I already AM a citizen. Heck, my insurance and out-of-pocket will be subsidizing this leech.
Oh, these stories make me so MAD I could SPIT.
“Asked what they would do without the free care there, one said she would go without. Another said she would have returned to Mexico to have the baby”
How simple is that? Go back home and have your Mexican citizen baby in his own country...
My daughter (a U.S. citizen) gives birth at home. This freaks me out, but it proves that it can be done.
Meanwhile, my son has 3 Canadian “anchor” babies.
ping
If you get her across the border FRIDAY, the two of them will be home.
“At that point, Medicaid, the federal and state insurance program for the poor, will pay for her hospital care and that of her baby”
Dropping another anchor. And it’s not Medicare paying folks, it’s you.
