Total and complete BS. A right wing congressman starting a rumor that Fox News is spreading. Simply not true.[/quote]

What would be wrong with it if it were true?  Don't you think we could give adequate care to those poor afflicted people?  We are all human after all.

Why don't they deserve equal care?  It shouldn't be determined by accident of their birth on another part of the planet we call home.  [/quote]

I guess you would be perfectly happy forking over another couple hundred per month, let's say, in taxes to pay for the flights of ebola patients? Ok with you, even if it means you have to take it out of your kid's college funds? Or better yet, we'll need to add isolation units to our top hospitals, so that will bring up the tax bill. I suggest you take it up with citizens who might not have a big bank account, which I'm guessing you do. Also, while you're at it, ask the Native Americans if they'd like to compete with ebola patients for medical resources. I hear BIA hospitals aren't too great.

And some Americans can probably get better care for certain diseases in France or Switzerland. Does that mean they should fly over there and demand to be treated cost-free? [/quote]
