Considering all the illegal immigrants in this country, do you think they should be able to use welfare or public assistance considering they aren't citizens and that many working Americans are denied welfare or public assistance.

This is a crazy question, in crazy times, and the common sense answer is that shouldn't be here anyway, and if they weren't here they couldn't leech off our system like a blood sucker. But absolutly not.

That is part the problem with undocumented immigrants. There should be NO public assistance in any form. It's is a bit barbaric where emergency medical treatment is concerned. But it is just another mixed signal that the government sends. No benefits, no jobs = undocumented immigrant problem solved.

Absolutely NOT! If you do something illegal you can be pretty sure that you will not be rewarded.

I now work in a large pediatric hospital in Los Angeles, and unfortunately the majority of our patients are non-English speaking recipients of MediCal. We are a Level 1 trauma center and treat many seriously ill acute and chronic patients; however, these families use the emergency department for non-urgent primary care issues daily and are overburdening our health care system while U.S. tax payers pay the bill. The federal EMTALA law (Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act) requires that every person requesting emergency services must be evaluated by a medical doctor and stabilized, so every person that comes in and says "I want to see a doctor, my child has a fever" or "My baby didn't poop today" go through our triage, evaluation, treatment, and discharge system. Did they take the temperature at home with a thermometer? no, "They felt hot". Did they give the child some Tylenol for fever, or a little prune juice to poop? no, but they packed up the whole family and came to the hospital and don't pay a dime! Illegals should be deported to their own country of origin and use the services there, if their country is broke then let them fix it.

Studies show no decrease in ERs since the implementation of Obamacare. The largest number of users of your services are those with the government paying for it.

I live in Orange County, CA. My comrade is an orthopaedic surgeon. He is a legal immigrant from Egypt. He told me that 79% of his patients are on Medi-Cal.

It's insane that you can get totally free total health care for doing jack nothing.
