However, studies by such organizations like the Kaiser Family Foundation indicate the vast majority of the uninsured getting health care subsidized from our tax dollars are American citizens with mostly blue collar jobs whose employers won’t pay a decent enough wage to afford health insurance or offer employer sponsored health insurance. They can’t afford “non-essentials” like health insurance when the have to pay for rent, food, and transportation to their job.
I cannot dispute any of this.
But with the illegal immigration population estimated at anywhere from 10-15M they have to get healthcare services somehow.
