hey, i'm aware that illegal aliens can be a drain-but they are not the reason we're in the state we're in-and allowing them to die isn't the solution either. but, they're an easy target to aim at when times are tough.

btw, you are aware that social security takes in hundreds of thousands of dollars a year from illegals who never get that money back? that one of the reasons ss remains solvent is the vast amounts of money folks pay in thru fake numbers, with no chance of ever getting it back?

should we do something about illegal aliens? absolutely. our borders evidently are too porous, and can allow people with far more dangerous ideas than using our health care in to this country, with far more tragic results.

The first word in "illegal aliens" is "illegal". They are breaking the law coming here. Frankly, it's the liberal attitude over the years that is responsible for encouraging this. "Just get to America...they pay for everything."

It's time for the decision to break our laws to carry risk and consequences. Maybe eventually the advice from one would-be illegal to another will be more like, "Don't risk it. If you're an illegal alien in America, not only will they lock you up and deport you, but you won't be able to get medical care since you need to be a citizen at their hospitals."

Sure, people from other countries would like to be here since we have more opportunity and freedom than the rest of the world. But the way to do that is to legally apply and be accepted by the official departments regulating that. We won't continue to have freedoms if we bankrupt ourselves looking after other people who, since illegal, should not be here in the first place.

Use that bleeding heart attitude for the citizens first. Charity begins at home.
