Do you also believe in little green men from mars?

Sure there are poor Americans who also use our emergency rooms for care and they have no insurance or the ability to pay but we don't need to add illegal aliens to that burden. Perhaps, if the illegals weren't here those of us that do have insurance our premiums would go down from not having to cover them anymore and those poor Americans could afford a health insurance policy.

ONLY illegal immigrants are using todays emergency rooms.

No one ever said that. You add words to quotes and change them and then requote them. That is enflaming an argument where there isn't one and an attempt to make someone who made a reasonable statement appear extreme.

There are a preponderance of illegal aliens using our emergency rooms. I am not going to waste space or time posting URLS pointing to those figures it is too widely publicized.

Why do you call it a "so called" medical deficit?

"the sole contributors"

No one said that. But I will go as far as to say my hypothesis ( that is guess based on scientific fact) is that if we got rid of the predonderance of illegal aliens using our emergency rooms then most of the "so called" medical deficit -if not all -would be alleviated

I agree with the guy (or girl) who is monitoring this site. Most people here are trying to reach out and find common ground for repairing problems. Picking up quotes and adding words to try to make them sound enflamatory is picking a fight.

If your words are twisted - on this site - PLEASE DON'T ADDRESS IT - it lends credence to nonsence. Clear thinking individuals respond to your real intentions - they don't spit them back out at you as enflamatory remarks.

Illegal immigration today: Use of tax-funded services on the decline - The Prescott Daily Courier - Prescott, Arizona

I don't think there are going to be any figures on the actual cost of illegal immigrants to california. When Jerry Brown is passing laws (three new ones - check out numbersusa.com) that provide illegal immigrants with college funds, stop government agencies from being required to check citizenship status on employment applications and keep funding going to sanctuary cities, there is an unchecked flow of money and jobs going to illegal immigrants courtesy of the Governor of California.
As far as I am concerned it is Anti-American. Here in Riverside county we have close to the highest unemployment in the country. Jerry's new law says even government jobs - paid by our taxes are open to illegal immigrants.
Conservation, Population and Environmental Records of the California Congressional Delegation
The above is a report done at UCSD which shows there is a direct correlation between environmental damage and illegal immigration. I would call this a cost to California.
But you aren't going to see this information included in any raw dollar quotes.

We are aware of that.

A dollar spent on illegals is a dollar too much.

Illegals are doing better than ever. The more government (taxpayer) money and benefits they are handed, the more money they can send back to their own country. As long as we must provide them their free health care, free education, free food and housing, they have heaps of money left over every month they are required to spend on their living costs in the USA.
