The other day in my hospital we had a young illegal woman return with an active case of refractory TB.

It was refractory because every time she was released, she refused to take her medication. Her last admission was for a month back in July when she racked up a bill of over $160,000.

Did I mention she was an unemployed illegal with no insurance?

Not only did all the citizens of Arizona pay for her care, she was also walking around in between hospital admissions exposing everyone to TB.

Are we really this stupid? FGS, seal the borders!

Funny how the MSM never seems to find these types of stories - even thought they're repeated in emergency rooms across the nation.

The way I know that NO ONE is being denied medical care is because if the MSM could fine ONE PERSON who was denied medical care, that person would be on the front page of the New York Times. This whole "health care fiasco" is based on lies. Lies anyone who has ever worked in a hospital could refute.

If their solution is based on lies, how good can it be?
