These are very strange days indeed. The President of the United States oversees the biggest expansion of federal government in history and declares, "Not because I believe in bigger government - I don't."And no one in the so-called Fourth Estate bats an eye. Now the law enforcement branch of the federal government all but declares that illegal entry into this sovereign nation does not count as illegal activity.
The video below drives home the point concerning why health care costs in America are spiraling out of control. The truly damning statements come in the recording final seconds.
Here's a partial transcript of that final exchange:
Representative: When you know that they’re illegal [when]
they come to your hospital, do you report them to the federal authorities to
come get them?
Carol Plato (sp?), Director Corporate Business Services at Martin Memorial
Medical Center:
We have tried and, uhm, we have been told, on numerous occasions, that they’re
only interested if a crime has been committed, and from what I understand they’re
not even interested then.
Rep.: The fact that they’re illegals is not enough crime?
C. P.: Correct.
