    They should have started doing this three generations ago. The cost of medical care for people who shouldn't be here is 100% on the federal government.

    I agree with the Texas Governor! They go to the ER the second they enter the U.S., and those who have insurance have to wait months for a Dr. appointment!
  • That's awesome to hear I wanna know how much I donated as a taxpayer while I pay for my own medical bills... Hopefully I can get a tax break from my donations to the illegals
