CALIFORNIA – A STATE FILLED WITH ILLEGALS AND CORRUPT SELF-SERVING
POLITICIANS SERVING THEIR CORPORATE RAPIST PAYMASTERS.
“So what about California? The economic well-being of many
metropolitan areas in the Golden State has been sinking precipitously since
2006. This year, three California regions--Oakland, Sacramento and San
Bernardino-Riverside--have sunk down into the bottom 10 on the large cities list. That's a phenomenon we've never
seen before--and never expected to see.” FORBES

CALIFORNIA – MEXICO’S JOBS, WELFARE, AND “FREE” MEDICAL FOR
THE MEXICANS THEY EXPORT TO LOOT OUR NATION.
WHAT? CAN’T AFFORD TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL? JUST TELL
THEM YOU’RE AN ILLEGAL. ILLEGALS ARE
ALWAYS ABOVE THE LAW! THEY DRIVE WITHOUT LICENSES, TAKE OUR JOBS WITH STOLEN
SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS, COLLECT WELFARE, AND VOTE!

Hospitals Spend $1.25 Bil On Illegal Immigrants
*
07/05/2011
While the Obama
Administration halts deportations to work on its secret amnesty plan, hospitals across the U.S. are getting stuck with the
exorbitant tab of medically treating illegal immigrants and some are finally
demanding compensation from the federal government.
The group that
represents most of the nation’s hospitals and medical providers recently urged
President Obama to work with Congress to reimburse them for the monstrous cost
of treating illegal immigrants. Federal law requires facilities to “treat and
stabilize individuals” regardless of their immigration status, but federal
support for the services remains “virtually nonexistent,” according to a letter submitted by the American Hospital
Association to the president.
This week officials
in California, the state with the largest concentration of illegal immigrants,
joined the call for federal compensation after revealing that hospitals there
spend about $1.25 billion annually to care for illegal aliens. The figure skyrocketed
from $1.05 billion in 2007, according to California Hospital Association
figures quoted in a local news report.
The problem will only
get worst, according to officials, who say the $1.25 billion for 2010 could
actually be higher. They complain that federal law forces them to treat
patients in emergency rooms regardless of immigration status yet they get stuck
with the financial burden. This has forced many hospitals to curtail services
or close beds and could ultimately compromise healthcare.
Nationwide, U.S.
taxpayers spend tens of billions of dollars annually to provide free medical
care for illegal immigrants with states that border Mexico taking the biggest
hit. Adding to the problem is the fact that Mexico, the country that provides
the largest amount of illegal immigrants in the U.S., has long promoted
America’s generous public health centers. It even operates a Spanish-language program (Ventanillas de Salud, Health Windows) in about a dozen
U.S. cities that refers its nationals—living in the country illegally—to
publicly funded health centers where they can get free medical care without
being turned over to immigration authorities.
