[history]
Mexican ambulance drivers are transporting hospital patients unable to pay for medical care or emergency-room services in their country to facilities in the United States, where their treatment is mandated by federal law, authorities said yesterday.
The border crossings have been reported from Brownsville, Texas, to Douglas, Ariz., and involve Mexican ambulance companies whose drivers have been instructed by hospital officials in Mexico to take ailing and uninsured patients to the United States, the authorities said.

We are going to have to build a 30 foot high wall, shoot anyone climbing over it, and catapult anyone who doesn't belong here back over it.

This is utterly ridiculous.
Why is it that nobody seems to care about this travesty?!
Can votes from illegal immigrants be worth this kind of lunacy?!

This insanity has got to stop. The answer is NOT more funding for hospitals on the border. The answer is DON'T LET THEM IN! Remember the good old days at Ellis Island. The sick were put back on the ships and sent home. These Mexicans must think We're the biggest suckers in the world. Unfortunately we are as long as we allow this to continue. At least the Canadians who come in to use our hospitals bring cash. (Our Northern border hospitals LOVE Canadians. They gladly pay.)

"Sen. Jon Kyl, Arizona Republican and sponsor of legislation to reimburse border hospitals for their mounting losses"
This is stupid. The solution is to tell the Hospitals that they do not have to accept these people. Americans without money or insurance could net get help form hospitals in mexico. Of course these dumbasses in the legislature would rather expand federal expenditures.

If the patients are suffering from a disease, wouldn't illegally importing them into our country be a form of bioterrorism?

I was going to post the same comment as Texas_Jarhead. I'm compassionate - compassionate about reducing my taxes so I can spend my money on my own family rather than illegals.

Sen. Jon Kyl, Arizona Republican and sponsor of legislation to reimburse border hospitals for their mounting lossesBy all means, let's continue to give the country away...
We should declare war on Mexico and take their oil fields as reimbursement.

"I guess you're not a compassionate conservative."
I am compassionate but the mezkins have used up all my compassion for them and now fill its void with resentment. I don't know what part of the country you reside in but in my parts they have had a massive impact. I used to think well of them but not anymore. With each passing year their numbers grow and so does their disdain for America and Americans. Racism and cultural superiority are the rule rather than the exception. Too many parasites eventually kill their host. I don't care for that eventuality.

Just my attempt at sarcasm.

I thought it might be but I wasn't sure so I just wanted to be clear.
To: sarcasm
So now America is Mexico's emergency room? Is that all we're good for? To be exploited? Mexico is nothing but a breeding ground for rip off artists and parasites.

Just think of it as one of the side benefits of NAFTA. Mexico never built any infrastructure to accommodate the flood of workers into the border area and now we wind up paying for their medical care.

Just like American Patrol said two years ago. The maqilladora zones draw Mexicans right to the border. The maqilladora zones function as a staging area for invading the United States. Especially as the maqilladora concept turns to shit as those factories move to lower priced China.

Nothing compared to the number of displaced farmers who will be travelling north over the next year.
