[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another serious question, why don't these people become legal citizens?[/quote]

Or learn English.  For the love of god, learn English!!!  Assimilate already.  [/quote]

I was at the DMV in Arlington renew my license. There were so many people wandering around asking questions in Spanish, eyes really big and wide like "oooh please help me, kind people."  I think they expected us to be paying for a translator for them! LOL. One old white man helped translate...was surprised he was the only one willing to help.[/quote]

Or maybe he was the only one who spoke Spanish!! This is America.....it's not like everyone is bilingual. [/quote]

Please, illegal alien kids get FREE school and English to become bilingual.  Money that could be spent teaching legal children another language which all other countries do.  Not us.  Lets keep funding ESOL instead and giving illegal aliens two languages.  Try to find any other country who not only allows illegal aliens to go to school for free but spends billions in legal citizen's taxes to feed and teach them to become billingual for free.  [/quote]

How about free health care? My daughter needed to see a specialist at Children's. The best I could do was get her in to see a nurse practitioner because the doctor appointments were booked for months. I get there and we are literally the only English speaking family in the waiting room. We receive no subsidies and are paying out-of-pocket more than $20,000 a year for health insurance and I can't get my kid into a specialist but all of the immigrants have appointments with the actual doctors and better coverage than us. [/quote]
That is EXACTLY what happened to me. I needed care, and I had to wait five weeks until I could get in. When I finally arrived in the waiting room, I was the only English-speaking person there - realizing I lost valuable time in getting to a doctor because, despite my inflated premiums to subsidize those getting free care, foreign-born people getting that free care were getting served first.

OMG, you people are ridiculous.  Maybe those people made appointments to see the doctor before you did.

My kid had to go see a pediatrician urgently.  We ended up seeing a nurse practitioner, in a very wealthy area where everyone spoke English.  Same thing happened to me.  I've had to see a NP instead of a Dr. for the past two visits.  Everyone there spoke English.  It's called "too many patients with not enough doctors" and has nothing to do with illegal immigrants.

And yes, my private insurance premiums are expensive, as they were prior to ACA.  [/quote]
