Red Cent 453 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 than expected. So, they (California) are using our federal money to provide for the illegals health care. Law suits? Surely, I jest. "California is one step closer to expanding Medicaid for illegal immigrants in the state, with legislation from both chambers of the legislature that could reach Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown’s desk." http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/06/04/california-one-step-closer-to-expanding-medicaid-for-illegal-immigrants.html Link to post Share on other sites

Pat Riot, SASS #13748 26,901 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Medicaid is not Medicare. Medicaid is state and federally funded where Medicare is purely federally funded. California expands Medicaid and calls it Medi-Cal and I have news for you, illegals have been getting free and subsidized healthcare for decades in California and many other states. That medical plan is called the "Show up at the Emergency Room and get care that you will never have to pay for" plan. It has been going on since the early 80's and states quietly fund some of it. Why do you think so many hospitals have gone bankrupt or been shut down in many southwestern states? https://www.ehealthmedicare.com/medicare-resources/medicare-vs-medicaid/ Link to post Share on other sites

Smoken D 2,531 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 It's an insurance move so that more of that green stuff gets into their pockets. You're right about them showing up at E.R. for free medical care. This way the insurance company will get the government to pay for it and they get their share of the profit. Just another way for the insurance company to make money. Just follow the green trail. Link to post Share on other sites
