HARSH YOU SAY?

[CAL]

• There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools, no special ballots for elections, and all government business will be conducted in our language.
• Foreigners will NOT have the right to vote, no matter how long they are here.
• Foreigners will NEVER be able to hold political office.
• Foreigners will not be a burden to the taxpayers. No welfare, no food stamps, no health care, nor any other government assistance programs.
• Foreigners can invest in this country, but it must be an amount equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage.
• If foreigners do come and want to buy land that will be okay, BUT options will be restricted.
• You are not allowed to own waterfront property. That property is reserved for citizens naturally born into this country.
• Foreigners may not protest; no demonstrations, no waving a foreign flag, no political organizing, no bad-mouthing our president or his policies. If you do you will be sent home.
• If you do come to this country illegally, you will be hunted down and sent straight to jail.

Harsh, you say?

The above laws happen to be the immigration laws of "MEXICO."

I say turn about is fair play......Round 'em up and send 'em packing. Matter of fact add to the list if you are in the country illegally and have a child, once the mother and baby are stable ship them BOTH home with a bill.

Sad to say, but it will never happen.

I personally feel that if someone from another country wants to come here and is willing to work then lets do a 1 for 1 swap with the worthless bastards in this country.

[Gorilla24D]

Sounds like a plan.....

[ShortBusDriver82]

Sad to say, but it will never happen.

I say we do like they do here in the jails... if you're illegal and have a baby... after birth to get out, you must process through ICE (immigration).... tagged, barcoded and shipped the fuck home with a bill...



Either that... or I'm flooding into Mexico as an illegal and collect funds from them...

Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas, Texas is a fairly famous institution and for a variety of reasons:

1. John F.Kennedy died there in 1963

2. Lee Harvey Oswald died there shortly after

3. Jack Ruby-who killed Lee Harvey Oswald, died there a few years

laterbycoincidence

On the flip side, Parkland is also home to the second busiest maternity ward in the country with almost 16,000 new babies arriving each year.

(That's almost 44 per day---every day)

A recent patient survey indicated that 70 percent of the women who gave birth at Parkland in the first three months of 2006 were illegal immigrants! Crikey, that's 11,200 anchor babie s born every year just in Dallas. According to the article, the hospital spent $70.7 million delivering 15,938 babies in 2004 but managed to end up with almost $8 million dollars in surplus funding. Medicaid kicked in $34.5 million, Dallas County taxpayers kicked in $31.3 million and the feds tossed in another $9.5 million.

The average patient in Parkland's maternity wards is 25 years old, married and giving birth to her second child. She is also an illegal immigrant.

By law, pregnant women cannot be denied medical care based on t heir immigration status or ability to pay. OK, fine. That doesn't mean they should receive better care than everyday, middle-class American citizens. But at Parkland Hospital, they do.

Parkland Memorial Hospital has nine prenatal clinics. NINE. The Dallas Morning News article followed a Hispanic woman who was a patient at one of the clinics and pregnant with her third child---her previous two were also born at Parkland. Her first two deliveries were free and the Mexican native was grateful because it would have cost $200 to have them in Mexico. This time, the hospital wants her to pay $10 per v isit and $100 for the delivery but she was unsure if she could come up with the money. Not that it matters, the hospital won't turn her away. (I wonder why they even bother asking at this point.)

How long has this been going on? What are the long-term effects? Well, another subject of the article was born at Parkland in 1986 shortly after her mother entered the U.S. illegally---now she is having her own child there as well. (That's right, she's technically a U.S. citizen.) These women receive free prenatal care including medication, nutrition, birthing classes and child care classes. They also get freebies such as car seats, bottles, diapers and formula. Most of these things are available to American citizens as well but only for low-income applicants and even then, the red tape involved is almost insurmountab le.

Because these women are illegal immigrants they do not have to provide any sort of legitimate identification---no proof of income. An American citizen would have to provide a social security number which would reveal their annual income---an illegal immigrant need only claim to be poor and the hospital must take them at their word.

My husband is a pilot for the United States Navy (yes, he fought in Iraq) and while the health care is good, we Navy wives don't get any of these perks! Car seats? Diapers? Not so much. So my question is this: Does our public medical care system treat illegal immigrants better than American citizens? Yes it does!

As I mentioned, the care I have received is perfectly adequate but it's bare bones, meat and potato medical care---not top of the line.

Their (the illegals) medical care is free---simply because they are illegal immigrants? Once again, there is no way to verify their income. Parkland Hospital offers indigent care to Dallas County residents who earn less than $40,000 per year. (They also have to prove that they did not refuse health coverage at their current job. Yeah, the 'free' care is not so easy for Americans.)

There are about 140 patients who received roughly $4 million dollars for un-reimbursed medical care. As it turns out, they did not qualify for free treatment because they resided outside of Dallas County. So the hospital is going to sue them! Illegals get it all free! But U.S. citizens who live outside of Dallas County get sued! How stupid is this?

As if that isn't annoying enough, the illegal immigrant patients are actually complaining about hospital staff not speaking Spanish. In this AP story, the author speaks with a woman who is upset that she had to translate comments from the hospital staff into Spanish for her husband. The doctor was trying to explain the situation to the family and the mother was forced to translate for her husband who only spoke Spanish.

This was apparently a great injustice to her.

"In an attempt to create a Spanish-speaking staff, Parkland Hospital is now providing incentives in the form of extra pay for applicants who speak Spanish. Additionally, medical students at the University of Texas Southwestern for which Parkland Hospital is the training facility will now have a Spanish language requirement added to their already jammed-packed curriculum. No other school in the country boasts such a ridiculous

multi-semester (multicultural) requirement.

In the meantime, I have to end my column here. I have to go buy a car seat.

[ShortBusDriver82]

Yep... Parkland (Dallas, for all y'all) is just next door... what a fucking trashy place...


Although if I get shot on duty.... take me there... the absolute best trauma center in Dallas...



Fucking illegals...

[ShortBusDriver82]

Oh and by the way.... all the info posted above is true....

Dont forget that if someone comes to this country illegal at the age of 62, they can start collecting SS at 65 and not even have paid into it.
