Fact: There is no correlation between Health (absence of illness) and Insurance (mis-labeled Healthcare). There certainly is no causation. Are Those who are paid to be in the "concern industry" are concerned that a group is proving them wrong on their basic premise?
Who cares? Were supposed to take care of the rest of the world? Yeah, sure.
The left want us to put a huge sign on the border that says “Anyone that wants free health care- come here- we’ll go broke treating you since your own country won’t. Just come here, get treated to the tune of 10’s of 1000’s of dollars, and then stay- don’t worry about the cost- it’s free”
“Access” is a code word for taxpayer paid stuff. No one is prohibited from getting health care.
Stay home.
Send them back to their own damn country.
This is insane. Take care of American born first.
It is not cold to say we can’t take care of everyone
“To reduce maternal mortality and infant mortality,”
If all these mothers and infants are really dying in Georgia, why isn’t the news-backed up with statistics-out there for everyone to see? Insurance is NOT “healthcare”, a 19 year old is NOT a child-and this article is just another false plea for giving taxpayer funded stuff ti mojados/illegals who don’t have any right to even be here...
So she assures Georgia taxpayers that the state wont have to pay the cost of tens of thousands more takers in PeachCare, since the federal government will pay 67%.
Who does she think pays the cost for the federal governments obligation? There is no free lunch, madam. Every dollar comes from American taxpayers, most of them from Middle Class wage earners who have absolutely no obligation to pay for anyones children but their own.
There are plenty of pay-per-service walk-in health clinics.
Flat fee for the visit, plus a few dollars extra for each lab test.
When I didn’t have ins, I went to a Dr only when needed, & paid about $120-140 each time.
That’s way better than a $900 mo premium x 12 mos when when only needed Dr 2x per yr.
Never, ever did I take my kids to the ER for an earache or tetanus shot. We went to the clinic & paid cash.
In fact, many privately owned clinics will charge self-paying patients up to 40% less than insured, due to savings on insurance billing.
Relatively healthy persons need not pay 1000s for annual premiums, nor should the taxpayers be subsidizing the insurance companies.
I am for free healthcare for usa conservatives and libertarians! Including free cialis! And an infinity Swimming pool in my back yard!! Tax the democrats all to 4377!! Yippee yi yo kiy yay
Here in Washington state, children under 18 and pregnant women automatically qualify for Medicaid - regardless of legal status.
Children under 18 also qualify for full dental care, K-12 schooling, and free lunch (and breakfast, if available) at school - once again, regardless of legal status.
Also - Seattle, King County, and my affluent suburban city, do not report illegal alien criminals to ICE.
Not running to the Dr. every other day is precisely why they enjoy better health. If the Dr.s don’t pump you full of unneeded meds they scare you to death.
That would be the point.
Now the damn liberals demand that we not only welcome illegals but give them more benefits than American citizens.
Real simple: if you’re not skilled and educated enough to hold a job that has health benefits, I don’t want you immigrating here.
A feature, not a flaw.
