Providing free health care for all illegal aliens living in the United States could cost American taxpayers an additional $660 billion every decade in expenses.
This week, half of the 24 Democrats running for their party’s presidential nomination confirmed that their healthcare plans would provide free health care to all illegal aliens at the expense of American taxpayers — including former Vice President Joe Biden, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), Mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY).
Center for Immigration Studies Director of Research Steven Camarotta told Breitbart News that only rough estimates are available for what health care for illegal aliens will cost American taxpayers, and though a comprehensive study has yet to be conducted on this specific issue, taxpayers can expect to pay a “significant” amount.
“If we offered Medicaid for illegal immigrants, it is possible the costs could be over tens of billions of dollars,” Camarotta said. “However, it would depend on eligibility criteria as well as how many illegal immigrants actually sign up for program once it was offered. So while the actual costs are uncertain, the size would be significant for taxpayers.”

Seems cheap price to pay in order to dismantle the patriarchy, go all in on diversity and pad Dem voter rolls. /sarc
But, BUT, they can provide up to 10 billion in tax revenue every year! Wait. that doesn't add up!
That's $660B more than should ever be spent on illegals!
So freaking wrong to even think about it, let alone try to do it.
This is just ridiculous from either side of the fence. The majority of American's won't even accept the idea of their taxes going to provide medical coverage for other Americans, let alone for an illegal immigrant.
Once again the Democrats prove just how stupid they are, I'm surprised they didn't just lie like they normally do, but it's all on video now so Republicans should use it as weapon against those idiots.
Providing care to the uninsured, in 2013 dollars, cost $85 Billion. Extrapolate to a decade and that is north of $850 Billion. So, yeah, kinda makes sense to have everyone pay into a system and receive care.
Just ask Maryland politians, Hogan, Miller and these Democrats how much Maryland tax payers have had to pay out so far for these illegals in Maryland. How many billions?
Pay into the system. Just what does that mean to people who have worked in American all their lives paying into the system. paying taxes, contributing. Then you expect these same people to pay for immigrants that the only claim to America is they stepped 1 foot across the border. Get real. Any money they make in America will go back to their country band won't be used in the American economy. Where is your brain snowflake.
And counting. That's why I left Maryland. Taxes too high for the services provided to hardworking people from the Eastern Shore. All taxes are basically used across the bridge - PG county; Montgomery county. High paying Government workers put into their positions by Obama.
