Just want to correct a few of your "hences". New Hanover has always had long to be seen in the ER, I have set a many a hour waiting there and that was before we had the Illegals here. Illegals in most cases do pay taxes. You do not have to have a SS number to get your tax ID number. You are falling into the same trap that the Germans fell into with the Jews. Actual fact is that they have created more jobs by being here than the have taken and that is Fact proven by the GAOM Study. Health Care cost are skyrocketing be cause on insurance. Before everyone had some type of insurance most medical cost were paid by the individual and yes if your doctor over charged you went some where else, now people don't care what the cost is because someone else is paying. THEY THINK.
