MILLIONS
It wouldn’t surprise me if over $1 million in just health care. I know a nurse that works at a women’s & children’s hospital and she says crack babies cost us over $1 million each. Now I don’t know if this woman has ever used crack or other drugs but I’d believe it very likely we picked up the tab for several if not all of the births. I am guessing she’s had other healthcare costs too.
If she hasn’t been working, she’s probably getting Section 8, WIC, Now $250-$300 per child, Earned income tax credits, obamaphones, Now free internet, etc. And we know she’s got at least one child in Child Protective Services. And it’s very unlikely she’s paying taxes that contribute to the public school system, etc.
I’d be very surprised if she hasn’t cost us millions.
