Serious question. Why should illegal immigrants get free health care?

@JaggedLittlePill no.

@TheunderdogofNY yes you did. I saw the question and avoided answering it, if not the same it was similar.

They discussed universal healthcare for all Americans and included illegal immigrants in that. Why wouldn't they. If they work they pay taxes..so they are contributing too. You guys all seem to fail to grasp that detail.

@JaggedLittlePill I didn't. I even checked my recent posting history to verify. So I'll just leave it at that on my end.

@TheunderdogofNY isnt it great for the illegals that the dems just include the non-Americans in with the Americans?! No other country in the world...🤦‍♂️

And @JaggedLittlePill which taxes are you talking about?? No one without a SSN pays federal taxes. And illegals should not have a SSN. As a matter of fact, all employers are required to fill out an I-9 form for all employees which requires a government issued ID (drivers license, passport, birth cert). How in the hell are illegals working and paying taxes??
Any visitor pays sales tax, but that doesnt give them any citizenship rights.

@easterniowegin oh my goodness. I am sorry. Maybe I said a few things in the incorrect way.


It gets a little confusing when people are calling every "Mexican" they see that does not speak English illegal. Tends to muddy the waters.

Regardless. You have no clue if the person receiving aid is an illegal or not. You assume based on the color of their skin and the language they may or may not speak. If you see someone like that receiving aid then they are paying taxes and are here legally. Period.


Why not allow people to get treated as anyone else in this country would be? We are America. We have ALWAYS been a melting pot of immigrants.

@JaggedLittlePill legal immigration has always been and will continue to be fine, with almost everyone.
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION is not. Don't substitute the word immigration when the subject is illegals. Therr is a significant difference.

@easterniowegin what IS illegal immigration?

Does it happen on the border or does it happen by people coming here on visas and never leaving?

When people are only able to apply for asylum by actually coming to America and applying when they are in the country(at a port of entry)...does that make them illegal? (Clue: it does not)

@JaggedLittlePill yeah, the problem is that dems don't understand or care about the word "illegal". That's why they say "undocumented "...as if the definition is different. Lmao.
Whatever feels better to them.

To answer your question, yes all illegals are illegal and should be removed. But it doesnt do any good to bail out a boat until you patch the hole first.

@easterniowegin dems dems dems.

Maybe some people don't understand why it is a bad thing that people want to live here and contribute to the country. 🤷‍♀️

You dismissed the facts presented here...not surprising.

@JaggedLittlePill it is NOT a bad thing to want to live here. It is, after all, the greatest country on the planet. They know it...everyone knows it.
But that doesnt automatically grant every person the right to come here. Otherwise, why don't we just begin taking over certain countries around the world and setting up US controlled areas within our empire, so they dont have to make the trip here?!
All 8billion on the planet cannot live in our country, simply because they want to.
