Defending our boarders is more important than anything. A friend who lives in AZ relayed a story to me yesterday. She arrived at a local Phoenix emergency room suffering from terrible foot pain. She sat on a hard chair for over 3 hours, all the while witnessing one hispanic family after another arriving and receiving immediate care. She said that the patients were mostly children with fevers and runny noses. I explained to her that hospitals have an incentive to see immigrants because they are guaranteed payment from the United States Government. If you had to make a decision which would you treat? An American citizens who may or may not have hc insurance or an illegal immigrant with full coverage? Treating illegals is more lucrative for hospitals than any other group besides Federal, State, Local or Union employees. Simple!
