Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Thursday that immigrants living in the U.S. illegally would not be covered by her proposed universal health care plan.
True to form, she then waffled on to say she supports basic health services for illegal immigrants, including hospitalization and treatment of acute conditions. Working as an HR professional, I'm well aware of the cost of hospitalization and trips to the ER--they're the top 2 costs in all of health care! I also witness a large number of people misusing these services, for instance, going to the ER for colds, flu-like sypmtoms and splinters.
"People who are here legally deserve some better treatment and acceptance in the law than people who are not here legally," she said. "These are hard choices." What's so hard about it? Why do I as one of the legal citizens paying the bill deserve just "some" better treatment than people who shouldn't be here in the first place, never pay a dime for their health care, and blatently disrespect and disregard our system to remain in this country? Frankly, there is no acceptance for that in the law, that's why they're called ILLEGAL aliens.
