    No I don’t.

    But that answer doesn’t solve the problem. So what is the solution where everyone can be happy.

    The next question is what do we do with someone who is hear illegally and is need of serious health care – do we ignore them and turn them away or do we help them?

    No, that would be inhuman.

    The next quesiton is how do we pay for that person?

    I think some kind of foundation or non-profit organization can be setup that could be a tax deduction for those that donate to it. This Non-profit organization would be used to fund situations like this. In this case the doctor/firm/hospital is not loosing out money, those that want to see those that can’t afford health care get it and get a tax write off, and the person who is hear illegally gets the care.

    I don’t know how practical that is, but it is better than the current situation – where those that already pay for their families have to carry the weight of those that don’t pay.
