Yes, Barack Obama lied when he said his health care proposal would not allow illegal aliens to get free care.
"The debate affects approximately 2 million illegal immigrants in California who lack health insurance. State officials have conducted no detailed studies of the impact because the bills themselves are constantly changing. It appears, however, that the state budget would benefit should illegal immigrants be included, but would incur even higher costs if they are excluded largely because it's virtually certain that national health care would expand eligibility for Medi-Cal, the program now serving about 7 million low-income Californians, by raising income limits.
By one congressional analysis, increased eligibility would cost California an additional $1.4 billion a year."
For California the cost is a minimum of $1.4 billion to pay for expanded Med-Cal--which is being forced to cover illegal aliens. That $1.4 million will be paid by you and me--not the Feds (oh, Dirty Harry Reid got an amendment to the bill to have the Feds pay for the Nevada illegal aliens).
Obama lies and we pay. What do you think, time to get rid of the Democrats who voted for this disaster?
