It is worse then you think.

It is not just having Medicaid pay for Illegal Aliens medical bills. It is that those bills will be paid at a higher rate then those for the Native Born.

For example, if you go to the ER and you are on Medicaid and a doctor sees you for five minutes to put in three stitches they get paid $500. If the same procedure is done to a Illegal Alien they get paid $750. (all numbers are pulled out of thin air don't get hung up on them).

So any Illegal will automatically get moved up ahead of any impoverished Native Born because it is more profitable for the hospital.

It is like when they threw out homeless vets from a shelter to make room for illegals.

No matter how much you hate them, it is not enough.

Maybe, but often its the other way.

Consider the illegals they care for that have zero insurance. They pad up the medical costs of people who have insurance, especially those with good insurance, to cover the illegals with no insurance.

Medical care is so screwed up. Just like the legal system is, just like government is, just like education is. Every major area of society, all screwed up.
