well to be real the problem isnt the illegals .. its the funding the hospital gets.. hospitals should get enough money to treat their caseload period. illegals or no illegals. the hypocratic oath certainly doesn't include a disclaimer for only u.s. citizens infact it goes one step further and includes illegals. , and besides that illegals are pumping money into the economy not distracting from it as far as i can see. If they are in the country they are likely working and likely paying taxes of some sort. the problem is census figures dont always work especially in areas with high influx in people.

Hospitals are like education.. there is no reason why not to completely fund it. it pays off in taxes, if we keep people alive they can pay more taxes , if we educate them , the smarter they get the more money in taxes they will pay.

Canada should simply train every child from 1st grade to be doctors , then become the worlds hospital..
