You forgot part of the headline.
This entire notion of owing anyone outside of our citizens; at least that argument can be made for healthcare in general although not the way its being implemented; is insanity of the highest order. So we owe people who entered our borders illegally then how about the people just over the border? They look from the barren wasteland that is Mexico (why else do they keep coming?) at our gleaming skyscrapers and say why not me too? How about them? They only need walk over the border after all and be exactly like their illegal brethren. Where does this end?
We owe illegal Aliens bumpkus.
They are Citizens and the responsibility, of some OTHER Country!
We owe that other Country the respect of viewing these vistor’s are their Citizens
Dreamers and SCHEMERS.....”How do we get free housing, education, food, medical care PAID FOR BY SOMEONE ELSE?”
We owe you retirement via impeachment kenyan.

> Obama: ‘We Owe’ Young Illegals a Path to Citizenship
Me, “No we don’t.”
Sorry Barry. I’m not an America-hating, Kenyan Marxist. I don’t “owe” them ****. Where do you get this “we” crap?
Close the borders today. Start deporting 1 million illegals a month until they’re gone. Begin talks about immigration.
What if they refuse a background check, refuse to learn English, and/or don’t get a job? What happens then? Do they get deported? And once deported, what’s to stop them from ending up back here within a week, since “legalization comes before security?”
We must LOUDLY reject the 'we owe' message and refuse to be guilted into providing lifetimes of entitlements to people whose familial ties to the U.S. began with a violation of our Federal laws.

If that’s the case then we should reward children of bank robbers also. Didn’t they break the law and were’nt the children paying a price for their father going to prison?
Anyone who has not spent a couple days on the border (or a Home Depot at 7am) has no standing. NObama and other losers live tucked away in their protective circles. They need to walk the streets of El Paso, Eagle Pass, or Laredo without secret service protection and see how they like it. Send his daughters down there for a shopping spree without guards.
Never happen.
Killing innocents for the crimes of others is barbaric.
...and the mother's health
De facto abortion on demand.
We do not “OWE” anything to them. I could be persuaded to allow some of them to EARN it.
Rubio has made this argument, that what else can we do for those people already here.
The problem with this argument, even if you accept the premise, is that the exact same argument would hold true in 10 years.
Meaning they pass this bill, and over the next 10 years, millions more people come into the country illegally. Now THEY are the ones “in the shadows”. And the argument remains — it is unfair to keep them in the shadows.
I actually agree with the concept that, all other things being taken care of, we should accept the children who grew up in this country for immigration. They didn’t break the law, their parents did. And they don’t have a home to go back to, they never lived in that country, they might not know the language, they were educated here, and should be part of our culture.
And in fact, many times their parents WERE here legally, and only later stopped getting their visa renewed, or otherwise lost their legal status. Or the kid turned 18, and now is no longer covered under their parent’s legal visa, and so they need there own, but the broken system didn’t provide a way for them to get their own legal immigration papers (in part because of all the illegals clogging up the system).
If that was ALL that was being proposed, in exchange for securing the borders and going after the adults that came here illegally, I’d support it.
