Second, we are talking about less than 5% of the population here. Unless they use the services at a grossly dispropportionate rate (like 3 or 4 times the norm) their contribution is far from HUGE.
I'm sick of illegal immigration being the boogyman that gets pulled into every topic. Yes, it is a contributing factor but it is dwarfed by the amount of actual CITIZENS that don't have insurance and skip out on the bill.

That's why Bush a few years back... (it's in a past post the link and news article, I'll have to find it)..... signed a bill to help border state hospitals that were going bankrupt by giving them $1 BILLION to treat illegal aliens.... (NOT US citizens.... ILLEGALS)
