California becomes 1st state to give taxpayer-funded health benefits to illegal immigrant
Fox ^ | 7-9-2019 | Frank Miles

Posted on 07/09/2019 9:38:43 PM PDT by tcrlaf

Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., signed a bill into law on Tuesday making young illegal immigrants eligible for the Medicaid program in California, making it the first state to offer such taxpayer-funded health benefits to low-income adults age 25 and younger regardless of their immigration status.

State officials said they expected the plan to cover about 90,000 people and cost taxpayers $98 million. California already covered children 18 and younger regardless of immigration status.

The law will not give health insurance benefits to everyone 25 and younger, but only those whose income is low enough to qualify.

I’m starting to think welfare wasn’t this apparatus designed to give a hand up that got out of control and that getting everyone hooked on some form of collectivism and crash the system WAS the original intent.

I think we’ve been had.

You ever see the most wanted criminals is various California cities and towns? About 90% of them are illegals. What California is doing is importing violent criminals into the state with the safety of the taxpaying citizen put last....

LA most wanted...

San Diego most wanted.....

This one is funny: This is most wanted in Northern California. The only few white guys on it are the ones who escaped from Alcatraz almost 60 years ago....

the cost of all the illegals is one thing, but it is unconscionable that we let them out of jail to kill US citizens the very people public offices take an oath to protect.

Why some judge hasn’t ruled officials are culpable in these deaths its beyond me.

The ‘Mexico’ label was fair to use in the 1990s, but I think in the past twenty years....a large segment of the incoming crowd are from Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, and Belize.

You can also note in recent weeks that African migrants have been noted crossing the border. Rumors suggest that freighters are carrying across the Atlantic for a price, and a smuggler route is being developed. Wouldn’t surprise me in a year to see 3,000 Africans a month crossing the border using this route.

Appalling. Next will be New York, then the rest of the blue states... including here in The People’s Republik of Connecticut.

And to think of the wait times and substandard treatment so many of our veterans have to put up with...

If that isn’t enough to make people recoil in anger, nothing is.

“We’re still stuck with a worthless Congress left over from the lawless Obama Administration that will predictably not lift a finger to do its constitutionally enumerated duty to protect California taxpayers from their renegade state government.”

And it’s insane on it’s face, since out of 40 million residents, 150,000 people here are paying 40% of all income taxes.
Just heard someone say to a talk show host, that he was moving from Vacaville, CA to Boise, ID. A one-way van was more than $3,000. to Idaho. However, a one-way van of the same size was a tenth the cost going the other direction. So the guy flew to Boise, rented the van, did a round trip and even with the excess mileage charges and plane fare, he saved $2,000.

When the state runs out of money the federal government will pay the bill.

I believe they are trying to mandate it in California if they have not already done so.

Exactly. Communism is in our future unless we can vote out the Leftists. The Democrats have been infiltrated by communists for 80 - 100 years, which is why they are fighting Trump so hard. He wants to keep America free and they want a communist utopia.

Unfortunately, we can delay it, but I’m afraid its too late to stop it.

Okay, Cali-pukes...enjoy paying for it. Uncle Sugar ain’t gonna bail you out.

Of course, the USA might buy the whole state at the one-cent sale, when you are totally bankrupt.

The pimps that is kommiefornia have long since even pretended to do the right things. From here on out, it's open and blatant warfare against the Right. We've given in so much for so long, Satan's minions have nothing to fear. And rightfully so.

I read elsewhere about a golfer looking for his balls in a nearby woods. Maybe our republican congresscowards can find theirs too?

"California becomes 1st state to give taxpayer-funded health benefits to illegal immigrant."

70% of all scientist believe that's what causes earthquakes...

Medicaid comes from Federal dollars. By handing over cash to ineligible people, they open themselves up to charges of embezzling federal funds.

“State officials said they expected the plan to cover about 90,000 people and cost taxpayers $98 million.”

That’s $1,000 per person. I seriously doubt $98 million is an accurate number. I’m thinking more like $9.8 billion.
