"When they start paying their hospital bills and get auto insurance "

In most states you can't drive without insurance. You can't get your car inspected, get license plates or renew your drivers' license. Some have roadblocks checking for insurance.

Illegals don't get any different medical treatment than any other people. You don't have to pay your bills or have medical insurance either if you're willing for your family to be treated as charity cases. You can also get free food at many churches if that's the level of existence you choose for yourself and your children. I'm not jealous.

I love it when people are sooooooo wrong.
Scenario: 2 people go to the local county hospital, 1 is illegal, 1 is a 59 yr old citizen who has worked his whole life.
The admitting clerk uses a 000-00-000 social sec # for the illegal and a 111-111-1111 soc sec # for the citizen.
Both are treated and released.
The illegal NEVER gets a bill and the citizen is hounded for the rest of his life by the hospital for unpaid bills.
The county hospital wrote off $7 mil in 000-00-000 soc sec #'s last yr.
The citizen died and his wife who is on social security is still getting calls from collection agencies.
How is this treated the same?
This is a real life scenario that happened to my mother and father.
And oh yeah, that $7 mil write off was paid by the taxpayers of the county.
I also used to work in the system so know this is how it is done.
