re: Another kid died in custody of border patrol

RAd should be banned for this bullshite

A ton of what? For someone who is keenly aware.... that is a very general retort.

No one gives a shite what it cost you. That’s on you.

I wanna know what illegal immigrants cost the US taxpayer in medical costs per year. Someone keenly aware can answer.

And then after that... I wanna know who’s budget it comes out of and how that helps their mission to the people who pay the bills... the American taxpayer.

quote:

There are charities that do this.

Name it. Name the charity that paid for it and routinely pays for illegal alien healthcare when they travel to the US and absolves the US govt the responsibility to cover.

quote:

---

When the hell did I say a word about tax money? You're just making up crap now.

---

HELLO MCFLY!! That is who ultimately pays the bill. These trips to the hospital was billed to the agency and ultimately is paid by the American taxpayer. In an amount that would take the average middle class taxpayer 5 to ten years of income tax responsibility to cover. If they had been admitted to intensive care. For. One. Illegal. Alien.

It isn’t this imaginary charity. It’s the taxpayer.

---

Again, you're just making shite up since I've not said anything close to this

---

So if there is zero net gain from illegal immigration.... and actually a huge downside... you are opposed to it. Correct?

It isn’t this imaginary charity. It’s the taxpayer.

Not really.
But then again, as you said, you "don't give a shite."

Another kid died in custody of border patrol

I hope it's because they shot his illegal arse.

What part of illegal do you libtards not understand?

quote:

---

You wanna know? You really wanna know? But you don't wanna google it yourself? Last year's number was $17,135,594,572.00

---

I wanted mr keenly aware to just say it. You apparently knew.

You know that is more money than it costs to run the entire US Treasury Department with enough left over to fund the entire EPA?

And that money is spent on people who are breaking federal law.... and are then compensated for it.

So where were you when Obama was droning kids left and right?



How about kids that die due to illegal immigrants?

Charities that help with medical bills

quote:

---

You may be eligible to receive financial assistance from the government, a nonprofit, or the hospital itself. Check into all three possibilities. Local assistance programs. Some states and local governments have assistance programs for people struggling with high medical bills. Some private nonprofit groups also offer financial assistance to help offset medical expenses. Contact your city or county representative (or local social service agency) for information.

Financial aid from hospitals or medical clinics. Most hospitals -- especially nonprofit facilities -- have charity care programs to help cover or reduce medical bills for some families. Eligibility is usually based on income and savings. Advertising for these programs is often minimal or non-existent, so you will need to actively seek them out. Many nonprofit medical clinics have similar programs.

Health care for undocumented immigrants

The first option in Emergency Medicaid. Both the federal government as well as states contribute to this benefit. It is legally required to be offered to all people in this country, whether they are legal or not. So an immigrant can have a portion of their medical bills paid, by given lost cost prescription drugs, and other health care. Call a local social or human service office for this form of support.

Illegal immigrants often turn to sliding fee or free community clinics for their medical care as well. These are located in rural communities, cities, and really most towns and counties. Most of them are set up at charity organizations and are operated by volunteers. Some doctors offer care or a dentist may even provide free checkups or tooth cleaning to undocumented immigrants, including children or the elderly. There are both dental clinics as well as those that focus on other services, including clinics for medical care.

States often offer health care for the uninsured as well. In some parts of the country this will cover immigrants that are not documented. But some state benefits may not be as flexible. However these uninsured assistance programs are another possible way to get free or discounted medical care.

ith my medical bills?

Maybe.  In Washington State, these programs are open to all low-income immigrants who meet other program requirements, no matter what your immigration status is:

Medical coverage for children under 19.

Medical coverage for pregnant women.

Emergency Medicaid for treatment of emergency medical conditions in a hospital.

Treatment for cancer, benign life-threatening tumors, or dialysis.

If your immigration application is pending, but you have not yet gotten immigration status, you may be eligible for other benefits. Read Washington Public Assistance for Lawfully Present Non-Citizens.

Am I eligible for coverage under the pregnant women and children’s health programs?
All low-income children under 19 and low-income pregnant women are eligible for medical assistance in Washington State regardless of immigration status, if you meet other program requirements.

Imaginary? The links I provided above show these charities are far from imaginary. And that list above is a small drop in the bucket.

Yes, there are a lot of cases of our tax dollars being used too. Some I don't agree with. But, when it comes to saving a life and especially a child's life ai don't care if my tax dollars are used.

I do not favor open borders. I'd like to see them go through the aslyum application process (an the Supreme Court just overruled and blocked Pres. Trump's attempt to deny these immigrants access to the aslyum process.)

There is a net benefit from having immigrants come in the right way. I'm not sure how you thought I favored them coming in illegally. I never said that.

However, aside from rabbit trails, strawmen, and red herrings I am saying that the deaths of these kids seem to just be written off.

You misplaced this reply. You were responding to me asking what charity covers the costs of illegial aliens and absolves the government of the cost. None of which is in your relply

You did.. however.. aid me in my point. You see.... Medicare is not a “charity”. It is funded by.... finish the thought.... it is funded by the A_______n t_______r.

As few if any of caravan-types have financial resources, they will either be non-pay or medicaid. As the government also compensates facilities for "self-pay" indigent care, taxpayers almost assuredly foot a portion of the bill.
