Comment on Health-care system in trouble, says hospital spokeswoman

A friend emailed me about 76684-healthcare.wmv

I replied:

Very interesting. This isn't just some anonymous email that you can't determine whether or not it's accurate. Unless these people are excellent actors, this is true.

The questions include

• why aren't the Feds interested in returning these illegals to their home countries?
• how much would health-care costs go down for the rest of us if our hospitals didn't have to accommodate these illegals who aren't paying anything?

Please note that most illegals do pay something; but since they (and many poor people who aren't illegals) use emergency rooms, which are far more costly than private clinics, the losses to the health-care system is much higher than would otherwise be the case.

Don't you think we didn't need the health-care changes the Democrats in Congress forced on us; we just need better thought on such things as this brings out?
