is suggesting sending the uninsured back to their home countries. Segregating them into a seperate room at the hospital only long enough to give them ER care and waiting for the INS to come and get them. Well over ten million illegal aliens are getting health care for free in the USA. Think not? Go to any ER especially in a big city and you will hear more Spanish then English spoken. Then when they get to the window ahead of obvious American citizens (insured or not) they need an interpreter as they do not speak any English.
Quit trying to make those posters who point out facts or logic as unfeeling folks. Americans are the most compassionate of all people on earth. You have the tendency to act like our President and make Americans out to be the bad guys when anybody who knows their world history over the past one hundred years it is the USA who has done more peace, liberty, and well being (food and health care, and rebuilding) of friendly as well unfriendly countries then any other country in the world.
God gave us much and as we should we give back much. As Steve and others have pointed out health care in the USA needs fixing but what we do not need is to throw out everything that makes our medical care great. In fact if one traces back to one our cost started to skyrocket you will find the govt. and it's regulations all over the increases as well as the fact that the Democrats (and some republicans) are in the pocket of the tort lawyers who have done more then their share of increasing our health care.
Send illegals home, get tort reform and get Govt. out of the Doctors offices and lets see what happens. By the way are you aware that TB has become a major problem in the USA especially in schools in the southwest? The problem has been tracked to, yep you guessed it the illegals who have been allowed to come into and stay in America.
