could cause longer waits in emergency rooms. On a good day your wait could be 2 hours(right now). On a bad day it could be 7-13 hours. I am not kidding.
Basically all the patients seen in those clinics have no insurance or are on Medi-Cal
Medi-Cal does not pay. Virtually every hospital in the state is at risk. I can't count the number of times I've had a Medi-Cal card shoved under my nose with a request made in a foreign language. Now let's just assume these people are 'legal' (I know most are not). When my mother came to this country years ago her family was required to have a job waiting and a sponsor to insure they did not become a burden on the state. What happened??!!

If You are an alien legal or illegal you do not get free medical care! If you don't like it than return to the country of your origin.
Why should hard working Americans have to pay for everyone who never contributed to the system! We did not ask these people to come here. We did not put a gun to their head and say COME TO THE USA!
It costs the USA 24 billion a year to take care of illegal aliens. Time to move the USA troops out of Germany and have them guard our boundries.
The illegal aliens are draining our budgets. They are here breaking the law. Time to send them back where they are from. If they don't like it TOO DAMN BAD

That's right. Your mom paid her own way. That's something that folks who know nothing about this issue seem oblivious to. And long term Mexican national immigrants are sick of what's happening just as much as we are. Their tax dollars to pay for this. Does anyone think they like it? Sheesh!
