What does "come second" mean? Like they wait in a longer line? They get worse doctors?

And just because other countries don't help immigrants is hardly an argument that they shouldn't be helped. WHY shouldn't they get health care?

You didn't ask a question. You made two statements implying that holding this company accountable for illegal actions, robbing people of money, is harmful.

Go fuck yourself.

How is it in poor taste? Just because it's real? The faux empathy for the IDF is literally the joke. It's saying "killing babies bad". What part of that do you have an issue with?

Yeah "solve mental health" but no health insurance for those poors! Great idea!

Any other cliche TV quotes you want to throw out?

I've got a wacky idea. What if we treated people as people and didn't discriminate based on where they happened to be born? Especially in this case where we're talking about people who live in the state, report their income, and pay taxes contributing to everyone's state funded healthcare.

"we're not even covering our own citizens"

"We" already are. If by "we" you mean Californians.

Also what's the alternative here? ER's can't deny help based on insurance. So if an immigrant goes to the hospital, should the hospital foot the bill or should that be covered by the state?

Bringing homelessness, crime, and drugs into this is a false dichotomy. Those are separate issues. But hey if people aren't going broke from getting sick maybe homelessness, crime, and drug use may go down. If you're trying to fix those issues then health care should be top of your list anyway.

And like other comments have stated, they DO pay taxes.

And all that being said, when I need to go to the dentist, I go to Mexico because it's cheaper even with health insurance here.

"The appeals court said that Apple could continue selling its watches temporarily, while the company waited to hear back on whether proposed changes to its watches would avoid the patent issues."

Aw okay you can have just a little illegal patent infringement, as a treat.

You know, Twitter, the social media site later called X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter.

Yeah self driving cars are totally the same thing as giving a teenager a gun in a school.
