Heres another point to ponder...think ahead.. way down the road, and apply a thought experiment.

Consider in both a best case and worst case scenario..if the legislation you favor will create as its unintended consequence, a larger entitlement mentality and a bigger expanded government.

Well, in a perfect world, that wouldn't be the case, but I guess it's not a perfect world. I don't argue that any "guest workers" or whatever they're going to be called should receive any kind of government aid. Their ability to stay here should be contingent on their employment and on their ability to meet their financial obligations, and that includes medical bills and all these issues that are being raised here.

But then again, maybe I'm being too ideal here.
