And this is really the crux of it. You believe that the morality of caring for another human being changes based on where the are from. We do not.
No, I believe charity begins at home; and we can hardly provide for our own. Let Mexico and other countries provide their medical care. We have been used and abused enough.
And the fact that only ~1/3 have kids won't deter you from marching on with the "They are only coming here to be droppin' dem anchor babies to get on welfare!!!" garbage either I'm sure.

You said we have a MORAL OBLIGATION within our borders. So yes, your moral assessment does change based on nationality.

Twisting words again I see. I NEVER said “within our borders.” I said we have a moral obligation to provide for our citizens. Illegal aliens are NOT citizens.
ONLY 57% of untold millions? And, that’s just an estimate. Who knows how many illegals are actually fleecing taxpayers.

You should also learn to read your links. It's 57% of immigrants WITH CHILDREN.

Based on the latest data available, from 2009, 57 percent of households headed by an immigrant (legal and illegal) with children (under 18) used at least one welfare program, compared to 39 percent for native households with children.
So that means 43% of the immigrants WITH KIDS aren't even leeching the system. That kind of further crushes your claims that they are poppin these kids out to get welfare.

That's not even twisting your words, the citizen/non-citizen distinction is equally morally horrendous. Sorry for implying that your moral assessment changed based on something silly like geography. THAT WOULD BE CRAZY.

Still hanging on to a percentage you have yet to prove. Where's the beef?

Then, call me CRAZY; because I don’t give a damn about illegal aliens. In fact, I’m sick of them and their entitlement-minded demands. They need to leave, and they can get their medical care elsewhere.
