This is really my commentary on the issue of 'illegal' aliens. I just
have no problem with anyone who comes here to work. Friends of mine
often hire guys right off the local street corner here when they need
some heavy work done. Far as I have seen, they are really good
workers.

But they're sinking the health care systems in places like Yuma, AZ.


Thompson, you idiot. The problem with that isn't illegal immigrants,
it's Socialism.

What we need is a national health-care system at the basic level, run
by techs and nurses and providing basic care - checkups, prenatal
advice, immunizations, basic medicines but no exotics - free. It would
be cheap, especially with volume-purchased generic drugs and no
malpractice liability issues. It will never happen, of course, because
it would be a "two tier" system, and saving a lot of pain and death
wouldn't be enough to make the concept acceptable to Teddy or Hilary.

Notwithstanding it'd be flagrant socialism, maybe even communism, which in
case you haven't checked lately isn't exactly in the United States
charter.

Basic medical care is communist?

If the government forces one person to pay for another's, yes. If
the government takes over the health care industry and decides who
gets what care, certainly. How do you see nationalizing any
industry?
