.   so an illegal tresspasser walks into a hospital and needs services ..   the hospital is obliged to provide ..   the illegal tresspasser then states I have no  money to pay  and walks out .   Who do you think has to pay after that .  oh yeah the Federal govt.     and we won't even get into the states that provide Medicare services to the same illegals..     tip of the iceberg !

 

during this shut down .    the executive branch should shut down and close  PERMANENTLY as many of the DEI and ngo entities as they can      shrink the gov !!!

The hospital is legally bound to provide emergency care to anyone regardless of their immigration status or financial ability. EMTALA mandates that legal rights. You should know that if you are an American. 

 

Trump has been trying to dismantle the Obamacare since his first term and has failed. This shutdown is an extension to his jealousy of Obama’s signature bill. The layoffs are the collateral damages as a result of this demented wannabe dictator.

You quoted two links/sources: "Politico" reporting what government agencies are saying, and the White House website. Of course government agencies and the White house will blame the Democrats!

 

The reality is that the Republicans don't have the numbers to pass their funding measures in Congress; in an attempt to get support they made some vague promises to address Democrat concerns over health care,  promises which both sides realise that they have no intention of keeping. So the Democrats, not unreasonably, are not prepared to support them on such a flimsy basis.

 

The Republicans have countered with a remarkable accusation that The Democrats have a hidden intention to  extend healthcare funding to illegal immigrants. Mr Speaker Johnson has been very much at the fore in these accusations, lieing most fluently and shamelessly for one who claims impeccable Christian values!

 

The Democrats are now even less likely to support these funding measures, so through their actions the Republicans have muddied the waters and made any resolution even more difficult.

Oh yes those glorious days before Obamacare. Who can forget the high rates of uninsured individuals, the reliance on medical underwriting by private insurers and limited access for those with pre-existing conditions. Those good old days of unregulated insurance market. Trump will like to bring the country back to the good old days with people like you in toll.

Have you ever applied for government financial aid services or government healthcare, or food programs? 

Didn't it take a Social Security number, two forms of identification with photo, and a copy of a utility bill in your name showing your address? Or think that a computer wouldn't be able to flag a fake Social Security number before the first payment went out, generally several months after application?

 

Yet you still think all these illegal aliens are somehow signing up?
Wow.

 

 

Yes they are. They do not require those items do do so and haven't since osama took office. 
USAID funded programs just for this.

Just so you know, you can get a SS card and a DL that passes the scan test for 30.00 +12.00 usd right from china

Good because everyone I know that had insurance through their employer paid more for less after that passed. Mine went up 470.00 a month for 2 people. So we subsidized those without.

Have you looked at the back of your Social Security card?

Did you see where it says ‘Not for Identification?’  Have you EVER been asked to produce your Social Security card? Or isn’t it just the ‘number’ that’s needed. Did you know that those three sets of numbers are coded to the year you applied, the state in which you applied, and your group? A computer will pick up any inconsistencies immediately. It doesn’t  ‘look’ at the card. Same with drivers licenses. Buy as many as you want. Just don’t input the numbers into a computer.

Thats an AI answer that you changed up and it makes you look dumb. That also stopped being true in 2011 but you knew that, right ?

You have zero experience with this and it shows.
I've hired more than a thousand people in my life, this is the way it works.

To answer your question, yes I have been asked for it and as an employer, I demand it.
The fake IDs pass every existing bit of tech there is.

Did you also know that in America, you can buy birth certificates at the end of the year form people who had kids that year ? Yup, its a thing. Now you can claim a dependent. Doesn't matter that someone else is too. The software never picks it up.

You obviously have no idea for the real reason of the shutdown, it’s typical republicans being mean  as usual,they don’t want immigrants getting medical treatment, even though they contribute more than the actual cost!  Typical drump, everything he touches turns to <deleted>!

It that is true, why are the Democrats lying and claiming the reason they shut the government down was NOT to give non-citizens free health care?

Now all you need to do is explain how Democrats who are in the minority managed to shutdown the Government.

 

Give it your best go.

The lie is ‘Democrats shutdown the Government’.

 
Let’s see if you can explain how they did so while in the minority.

By not voting for the continuing resolution. That was easy. 

 

Next!

Democrats brag they are going to shut the government down unless they get changes to previously passed legislation, such that they can give "free" healthcare to non-citizens, including illegal aliens. 

 

Then, after the Democrats shut the government down (the only promise they have kept in years), Democrats blame Republicans for the shutdown.
