So in other words, 2 legal US citizens were denied liver transplants so that an illegal could get them twice. Wonderful!

Puente shrugs this off saying UCLA should take care of her for the rest of her life, “because I’ve been there since I was a baby.”

Cradle to grave mentally.

is it any wonder America faces financial bankruptcy with hospitals all over the nation closing while hardworking taxpayers pick up the cost?

This is near and dear to my heart since I work for a hospital who recently had to "downsize" about 10% of the workforce mostly because we are hemorrhaging money treating illegals. The ER is their primary care physician and they sit there and demand their free care. We are also a trauma center. They are in gangs and shoot each other, slice and dice each other and drive drunk and under the influence of drugs with devastating consequences in terms of the cost of treating their injuries. Of course none of them are insured -- the Mexican drug cartel doesn't offer group coverage. The Mexican consulate refuses to accept responsibility for their care.

Hey, I bet we could afford it if we cut off all the foreign aid we send to their corrupt govts.

That is sarc, by the way. Or half sarc. Actually I am in favor of ending foreign aid and free medical care paid for by the taxpayers.

...damn....and I am trying to scrap together enough money to pay to treat my prostate cancer...just damn...

What they deserve is one free gift from The United States Government consisting of; waiving of prosecution for illegal entry by granting permission for permanent identification by the installation of an earlobe stud containing identifying info, which can only be removed surgically, or a tattoo on a location of their choice and then immediate deportation with the understanding that they can apply for legal immigration, but people with out the ear studs or tattoos are first in line.

That ought to keep the ACLU busy for decades, thus granting the Boy Scouts, Public schools, Christian Churches, etc., relief to tend to their own business as the signers of the Constitution intended.

Sarcasm/off/??

The child underwent two liver transplants at UCLA Medical Center
as a small child in 1989, and a third in 1998 — all totally paid
for by the state of California.

I know a VERY smart lady that came (legally) to the USA from one
of the Eastern Bloc countries and is getting her MD from
the University of Southern California Med School.

Even though she does lean left politically, she candidly admitted:
"In the USA, you get TOP FLIGHT medical care if you are VERY rich,
poor, or an illegal. But if you're a legal citizen of average means,
you pay the bills and don't get much in return."

One Reporter’s Opinion — Illegals Do Not Deserve Free Healthcare....

The only benefit an illegal should get, is enough medical care, in an emergency, to return them to a hospital across the border.

[goldstategop]

That's expensive, life-saving health care denied to Americans like you and me. We gotta exhaust our life savings and sell our homes to pay for it. But illegals get a free ride.

Putnam was out in front of this issue when Bush was getting drunk in college.

He warned everyone what was coming 30 years ago...Few outside of California listened.
