I like how our national plan to fix the problem of crappy healthcare insurance is to force everyone to purchase crappy healthcare insurance. What a country!

In the USA it is important that outrage and anger be directed at those at or near the bottom. Anger and outrage should never be directed upwards, unless it is towards one of the officially recognized political divisions or disposable public figures.

Clearly the person in this story is an irresponsible brat who doesn’t know how to manage their money and is looking for a free ride. Having graduated from college, she might be able to extend her twisted scam for as many as 4 years before she reaches the age of 26! Think of the chaos and damage this will undoubtedly cause.

I will coin a descriptive new phrase for such people here, we’ll call them “Insurance Freeloaders.” I encourage everyone to post to this thread and to create new threads about how these insurance freeloaders are ruining our society.

Let’s address the root cause of unauthorized immigration rather than demonize and punish the immigrants themselves. As you said, they are us.[/quote]

I recently discovered a remarkable series of videos which articulate the root cause clearly and concisely. I highly recommend them.

[quote=CA renter][quote=CONCHO]What baffles me is that I don’t ever see Mexico helping with such a platform. They seem to always be stuck on having an open border. The way the Mexican citizens have to enter this Country is inhumane, yet the Mexican govt seems to support this as a way to keep the system.

The USA is Mexico’s steam valve. People desperate enough to pay thousands of dollars (and these are poor people mind you) for the chance to cross a dangerous border in order to work long hours in difficult conditions in order to feed themselves and their families are at the breaking point. If they didn’t have El Norte as an option, they would be revolting en masse to take Mexico back from the ultra-wealthy families who control it. Actually a few of them are trying to do exactly that in Chiapas. Also remember that remittances to the families of illegal immigrants number in the billions per year. This is an important source of revenue to the Mexican economy. Mexico doesn’t care about these people any more than it does about the rest of its poor.[/quote]

The bolded part is exactly what NEEDS to happen, and one of the reasons I’m against illegal immigration — it enables this tremendous wealth divide to exist in the first place.

There is no legitimate reason for Mexico to be a poor country, IMHO. What needs to be fixed is the corruption that is killing them.[/quote]

Illegal immigration is just a symptom of a larger disease. This problem exists around the world, from South Africa to Australia and Europe. The underlying issue is the accelerating transfer of wealth upwards from the great many on the bottom to the privileged few at the top. Illegal immigrants have no other option. The lower class people in the US are soon to understand their desperation, and the middle class are being repositioned as the new lower class. In 50 years most descendants of today’s middle class families will be living in favelas if things don’t change, and I don’t expect they will. That’s one of the big reasons I’m never having kids. That sad-looking Guatemalan guy trimming our hedge is one of us, and until we all understand that, nothing’s gonna change.
