We already do through indigent emergency room care. We don't leave people in the street to die in this country. Putting them in a public plan will save us money.
Well, that care has caused a number of ER's / Hospitals to have to close in my state due to lack of funding -
If they know they are not going to get healthcare in the US - and they will find out - it might, just might, reduce illegal immigration.
Many have already gone home - its been reported that the illegal population in AZ has reduced by over 1/3.
I keep asking....still can't get anybody to answer.
How much do you think YOU are going to be paying per year on the proposed "Obama" plan ?
How much coverage do you think you will get for it
if we are talking ETHICS, illegal immigrants should be treated by their own physicians in their own country, so they are not utilizing services meant for working americans. that is stealing!
Coulda, shoulda, woulda. A doctor's medical oath requires him/her to treat those in critical need.
Be careful of the slippery road to socialism - I think this quote by Reagan is applicable:
"The doctor begins to lose freedom. . . . First you decide that the doctor can have so many patients. They are equally divided among the various doctors by the government. But then doctors aren’t equally divided geographically. So a doctor decides he wants to practice in one town and the government has to say to him, you can't live in that town. They already have enough doctors. You have to go someplace else. And from here it's only a short step to dictating where he will go. . . . All of us can see what happens once you establish the precedent that the government can determine a man's working place and his working methods, determine his employment. From here it's a short step to all the rest of socialism, to determining his pay. And pretty soon your son won't decide, when he's in school, where he will go or what he will do for a living. He will wait for the government to tell him where he will go to work and what he will do."
-- Ronald Reagan
