Unless you're also posting as "Bob J" (which I seriously doubt), you weren't accused of "ignoring" anything. Stop flinching. ;)
I did say taxes would pay for it, but that doesn't translate to increased taxes.
Please explain how paying health care costs for (most commonly accepted guesstimate) an additional 30 to 40 million uninsured illegals would not, somehow, translate into increased taxes. This, finally, is the question Bob J has been frantically dodging, to no avail: where would those billions of dollars come from?
Last time I flinched was about 4 years ago with a 12" TC 30/30 barrel, and the deer, legal thanks me.
It's not about illegals.
Like it or not, todays illegals will become guest workers.
I can't speak for McCain here, it's beyond the policy statement, but I'll repeat in my opinion, employers of guest workers must be responsible for the costs of health insurance, liability insurance, and some level of "unemployment", since job mobility is important to prevent employer abuses.
If McCain agrees with me, there are no increased costs, costs will be reduced as illegals become guest workers, health costs paid by their employers.
Again, you're a bit off topic here.
The question you're addressing is what will happen to all the former "illegals" when they become "guest workers", and under my plan their employer is either paying their health, liability and unemployment costs.
Or firing them, bye bye
Or breaking the law, which imo must be dealt with severely.
