FYI, About 1/3 Of Those Covered By Obamacare Would Be Illegal Aliens
7/17/2009 | Laissez-Faire Capitalist

In case you forgot, or in case you haven't been persuaded yet to be in opposition to Obamacare, just realize that around 1/3 of those that will be covered by Obamacare will be illegal aliens. Nice long lines for you and the elderly...

In his book "Fleeced," Dick Morris talked about this and documents it.

Just thought you would like to know...

Dick Morris covered this in his book “Fleeced.”

Have you not read it yet?

I imagine that if you Google it, that you can find the info (from Dick Morris’ book) somewhere on the net.

If Mexico would give their citizens free healthcare, they wouldn’t have to die in the Arizona desert trying to come here to get it. Hillary and BO should be down there reading the Mexican government the riot act!

Good, since the DOD can’t get rid of illegal, Obama care will...

There are only about 8 Million uninsured americans, truly uninsured... That’s it folks, the rest are illegals and folks who are between coverage or voluntarily opt out.

This isnt’ about health care, its about control. They want to spend over a TRILLION dollars for 8 Million people??? Don’t bet on it.

Nope, not for the elderly. Obama thinks they aren’t worth taking care of. (Just hurry up and die, already.)

1/3 of those that will be covered by Obamacare will be illegal aliens.

Laissez, this is only true at the start of the program. As more and more of them become citizens (pathway to citizenship), the number will decrease.

Unless... unless the rest of the world looks and says, "Looky! Free medical care for my family! Let's go there!" And they do. And they flock by the tens of millions to get the free health care. So the reality is that the numbers will change upwards rather drastically. But the point is that the naysayers will be right. It won't be the case that 30% are illegals. Then it will be the case that 70% are illegal. So the Republicans are wrong! You just can't trust them with making policy decisions. Tut-tut.

So let me get this straight ... we are spending close to a trillion dollars after all is said and done AND destroying our health care system in the process for illegal aliens. Saying this this is an outrage is like saying the Sun is a toaster oven

I just did a google, but no- there are no direct quotes from Fleeced. However, when the book was written as well as all of the first 4 or 5 pages on google refer to his plans. Unfortunately, what I am not finding are specific actions that can be quoted on this plan that funds illegals.

Having said that, I am sure it will be published. Just not this moment.

Bring the Healthcare on, As long as the non-citizens have to wait at the back of all lines and can be bumped tot he back of the line when a citizen shows up.

There’s a method to the madness. Rationing health care to the elderly will cause many of them to die sooner than they would have, which in turn will reduce the pressure on Social Security as more and more baby boomers reach retirement age.

I think something like half of these folks are young kids going through college. But you’re right...it’s truely advertised in a way that makes no sense. I do think they need to reform the medical system to make it more competitive and chose-driven, but not the ‘gov way’.

YOU ARE EXACTLY RIGHT! It is about control. It is about socialism. It is about Marxist/Communism. It is about ending the middle class in America (part of a many pronged plan that is marching rapidly to victory).

But to say that goes above the facts in this bill that will stop it cold if we can get these facts OUT to the public.
