I am sure that we should "remedy this problem".

Are you prepared to send them away in labor, bleeding, having heart attacks?

If you are not, and if you are not just cost-shifting, what "remedy" do you propose?

If you want a cut in the cost of health care accross the board, vote for limits on tort recoveries and a cap on punative damages. The cost of insurance/drug prices/hospital care/doctor's pay are all driven up by the threat of costly lawsuits. Trial lawyers are running up the cost of every service and product in the US economy.

....no, I am not heartless. I would expect them to be treated until well enough to be deported and reimbursement from Mexico

If you are not, and if you are not just cost-shifting, what "remedy" do you propose

....armed guards at our borders to stop this influx of illegals draining our systems.

The remedy is to get government out of health care completely. If people cannot pay, then they would have to rely on private charity. And if government gets out of health care and we have a true market in health care, then prices will come down and services will improve. Then it will be more feasible for private charities to be able to provide health care for the poor. It's also a helluva incentive to not have kids you can't afford and to try to better yourself. Right now, who needs to, when you can get your needs met by living off the taxpayers?
