Clinton has no answers for undocumented immigrants

link
Let me help you out...they can get health coverage in the country they should be living in.

At a press briefing after Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's health care rollout Monday, senior policy advisers said the New York senator's plan does not currently include any details on whether illegal immigrants will be covered.
Senior policy adviser Laurie Rubiner–while acknowledging that undocumented immigrants are a "huge issue" in this country–said, "That's one we're going to have to think through a little bit."
"We have not dealt with every single detail with this plan," Rubiner continued.
When asked if it would be safe to assume that the Democratic frontrunner, at this point, has no position on coverage for illegal immigrants advisers answered "yes" and said the plan does not "at this point" deal with that issue.

"...has no position on coverage for illegal immigrants advisers answered "yes" and said the plan does not "at this point" deal with that issue..."

It seems, from the language, that illegal ALIENS (they are not immigrants) would NOT be covered, since the plan "does not....deal with that issue"...

Clinton (as well as ALL the presidential candidates, except Paul and Tancredo) haven't really addressed any aspect the illegal alien emergency to my satisfaction yet.

I would hope, obviously, that the illegal aliens would NOT be covered under the plan, and I have no reason to believe that they would be.

Are you kidding, Hillary was hoping to bring these Illegal Democrat voters in the back door after the deal was done. After all, to Hillary, this isn't her money.

True Hash, I agree with you.

If you are visiting a country, you would buy traveler's insurance. Illegals should buy this kind of insurance when visiting our country. Illegals from some countries laughingly refer to themselves as "vacationers."

Anytime you are a citizen of another country, you have to pay for medical services in cash or credit. We should be doing the same.

We live in an overcrowded world and a lot of countries tries to export their excess population.
When our government ( Sweden ) tries to send them back, some countries refuse to allow them back.
Unfortunately, we don't live in any paradise. We have to accept more surveillance than we would like, but at the same time set limits. A delicate balance for sure. Any commercial use is of course not acceptable.
