First, TPN is available world wide. But several countries, including Mexico, have little to no availability of certain types (say liver sparing or kidney sparing). So no, this girl was not getting what she needed at home. Her parents applied for her humane parole, she was granted it, and now you guys are looking for people's to justify deporting this girl. This child. |
As workers, they have also paid into social security. This is money that they will never see. Like all working non-naturalized immigrants, they are paying into the system, and ultimately subsidizing the retirement of American workers who will draw upon social security when they are able to upon retirement. |
I thought medical care was cheaper in Mexico. |
Yep. I would rather my tax money go to the 4 year old with a health condition. At least American doctors are learning about the condition as they treat her, in order to help others. Now we just get to pay for some racists to become US citizens so they can vote conservative. |
This is a very sad story but there are millions of sad stories. We cannot take in everyone who needs assistance. It's not sustainable. Perhaps, if our government had first focused on healthcare, jobs and education for our own citizens we wouldn't have Trump in office today. Perhaps, voters would be more sympathetic. Instead, each one of these stories is a reminder of the resources flowing to non-citizens. It's a net sum game for many voters at this point. They are seeing non-citizens receive services that they are unable to access for themselves. This is something that the liberal elite do not understand and why they will continue to lose elections. It's easy to be sanctimonious when your own kids are in private schools, your health care is affordable and your white collar job is secure. |
Republicans in Congress and White House won't, so someone needs to. |
Because USA pays billions of dollars to drug cartels. |
No, only brown immigrants, the color of dirt. White colonizers are A OK |
Why doesn't Mexico have access to this type of TPN? I don't believe it for a second. If it can be ordered and provided here, it should not be an issue for Mexican health systems to administer it there. We cannot import every sob story. We cannot afford to pay for this noncitizen's medical care for the remainder of her life, which will be DECADES of expensive care. The cruelty was Biden giving this family a two-year pass, hoping they could stay here indefinitely. Ripping off the band-aid hurts, but needs to be done. |
Loving the Republican argument in this thread:
"We need to give that money to billonaires. Democrats couldn't force us Republicans to care for native born Americans, so of course it's their fault we refuse to care for outsiders too. Elon needs another jet! UHC needs to kill another grandma! Another billionaire fraudster needs a pardon! Democrats, look what you made Trump and the Republicans steal!" |
Kill a 4 year old to own the libz. |
is a token amount the max you can afford? if you believe the story and true and you care about this particular child, why don't you do something meaningful to help her. |
Medical tourism is a multibillion dollar U.S. industry. An import if you will. People come from all over the world and PAY FOR MEDICAL SERVICES THEMSELVES!!! It provides jobs to U.S. citizens! We make a lot of money from this. A visitor must prove they can pay! |
First, has has been explained the conditions of humanitarian parole means they need to be able to pay for the treatment themselves but you refuse to believe that. Here is the documentation: " An important factor we consider in determining whether to authorize parole is whether the beneficiary will have a means of support while in the United States. We require evidence of an individual who agrees to financially support the beneficiary in the United States." Secondly this is a statement from the child's doctor: If there is an interruption in her daily nutrition system, called Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN), the doctor wrote, “this could be fatal within a matter of days.” “As such, patients on home TPN are not allowed to leave the country because the infrastructure to provide TPN or provide immediate intervention if there is a problem with IV access depends on our program’s utilization of U.S.-based healthcare resources and does not transfer across borders,” Arsenault wrote." Thirdly you seem to know more than her doctor and the people who work at immigration and approved this. The parents are here working, they're paying for their treatment and that's still not enough for you. why don't you guys just admit you don't want anybody here ever under any circumstances because you're starting to sound beyond effing cruel stupid and like a thousand other epithets |
They can make it happen with and without American support. But no one wants to. Because they’re ultimately pro-pregnancy, not pro-life. That’s the problem. |
