Wayne, all they have to do is sit around an ER for about 6 hours. They will see a Physicians Assistant if they are lucky. Of course, they have to pay full price for prescription medicines they need to live.

Everybody has access to free health care. It may not be through an HMO or established large company like Aetna but thats irrelvant. The care is provided free of charge. That's not true. If you go to the emergency room, you will be treated regardless of your ability to pay, but you will be charged for the care you receive there. If you cannot pay then you go into debt to the hospital. If you have a job they will arrange a payment plan for you. There may be a class that need not worry about paying for healthcare...those that cannot work. Drug addicts and alcoholics. These people don't pay for obvious reasons. So if you want free healthcare in America...just become a homeless wino. Orca
