the problem is that the system we have basically covers the uninsured with emergency room services paid for by the states and local taxpayers.

Yes, and the problem is we let people get away with this who can pay. Nobody shows up at a restaurant or at an apartment house and expects to be provided with free food and shelter. Our compassion here is out of whack.

Lizzie,

Your saying that these workers get just under $40,000 cash/yr in a foreign bank account plus room and board?

What about taxes? Not taken out?
