Also when was the last time you were in a hospital? Have you seen the little notice about not refusing emergency medical service even if a person can not pay for it? Or if you are in Louisiana, the services provided by the Mercy hospital system which is heavily subsidized by the state. Any way you cut it, those services drive up costs for those of us that do pay, either for medical services out of pocket, or insurances premiums, or for taxpayers in general. I am making no stand as to whether it is good or bad that they are here, just that your broad brush generalization is in error.
