You do realize that even if they aren't covered, they can go to the ER and get treated, and that still costs you, where do you think hospitals shift the costs to, possibly even more than it would giving them healthcare to begin with

Send a bill to their country of origin, IMO.

And then countries like China send us a bill for all the trillions we owe them

Seriously though, trying to recoup the money wouldn't work, either way there is going to be a healthcare cost, smartest way is to either extend minimal healthcare coverage to illegals, or to allow those illegals to become legal residents and citizens

The smartest way would be for the government to get the fuck out of every other area of life that it's currently trying to control when it has no business doing so (the War on Drugs, the War on Lightbulbs, the War on Cheerios, etc.) and to focus instead on the few things it's actually supposed to do, like defending our territorial integrity.

Actually government does have a role to play in a lot of aspects of our life, in fact if not for the government role, our economy would have collapsed a year ago
