    1. I would much rather pay for an undocumented immigrant to get emergency room care than for a multimillionaire or billionaire to get a few more thousand dollars in tax breaks.

      Undocumented immigrants paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022. Most of that amount, $59.4 billion, was paid to the federal government while the remaining $37.3 billion was paid to state and local governments.

      Undocumented immigrants paid federal, state, and local taxes of $8,889 per person in 2022. In other words, for every 1 million undocumented immigrants who reside in the country, public services receive $8.9 billion in additional tax revenue.

      More than a third of the tax dollars paid by undocumented immigrants go toward payroll taxes dedicated to funding programs that these workers are barred from accessing. Undocumented immigrants paid $25.7 billion in Social Security taxes, $6.4 billion in Medicare taxes, and $1.8 billion in unemployment insurance taxes in 2022.

      When anyone who can’t pay a doctor’s bill, who pays for it, we all do. The difference is that we shouldn’t care. It’s a basic human right…

    4. when a Ice agent gets his massive sign on bonus, who is paying for it? The American Taxpayer.
      I’d rather save someone’s life, thank you.

      The question isn’t who’s paying for it. The question is who’s getting paid. Since it’s usually not the staff why it’s so expensive.

    6. When Trump goes to his golf course every other weekend, who’s paying for it? The American taxpayer. Quite frankly i’d rather see tax dollars go to help someone with a medical emergency than a convicted felon, pedophile, traitor cheating at golf and bragging he won a tournament.

      When a billionaire can run a company and it “needs” to be bailed out, who’s paying for it? That’s right, the American tax payer. 

      I will prefer to help the alien who has job skills and compassion for their fellow human.

      It’s not even true.

      >According to recent [Medicaid data](https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/financial-management/state-expenditure-reporting-for-medicaid-chip/expenditure-reports-mbescbes/index.html), in 2016 the federal government spent $974 million in total on emergency and lifesaving services for undocumented immigrants, representing 0.2% of Medicaid expenditures 

      >Discussions of immigrants and public benefits often overlook the significant tax contributions made by undocumented immigrants. According to [research](https://www.newamericaneconomy.org/issues/undocumented-immigrants/) conducted by New American Economy, in 2018 undocumented immigrants contributed $20.1 billion in federal taxes and $11.8 billion in state and local taxes.

      When billionaires need a tax break, whose paying for that? When a corporation needs to be bailed out, whose paying for that?

    10. I broke my collar bone in Norway when I was 7.

      My parents paid $20

      Thank you Norwegians.

      Honestly, so what man. I mean I dont want someone to not get the help they need in my country. I have had to go to the hospital in other countries and I am so happy they were allowed to treat me. I dont want anyone just dying in my country when they need medical help.

      I’ll gladly pay my taxes so that people regardless where they’re from have access to healthcare, it’s not that complicated

    15. Scooter-breath on

      0.04% of all urgent hospital visits apparently are undocumented folks in dire need.

      I’d love a stranger to live instead of a fucking ballroom I’ll never see in person

    17. place_of_desolation on

      I’m happy to contribute my tax dollars if it means someone isn’t fucking left to die. God, these people are soulless ghouls.

      Universal healthcare now.
