You misunderstood my post. I may not have expressed it well.
“If they were illegals, it would cost them nothing. If they were life-time welfare collectors, it would have cost them nothing.”
Healthcare generally doesn’t cost illegals or those on welfare anything. They don’t get denied. They show up at the ER and get taken care of if they can pay or not. It just raises the cost for all the rest of us.
