Food for thought.........

This article was thought provoking for me. Does this hospital have the right to deport this illegal immigrant back to their country? Why would a hospital spend their own money to fly this man via a chartered flight back to his country?? They did this to avoid his long term health cost to the hospital as an illegal immigrant. They were being sneaky and failed to let family here legally know that they were sending him back. He is on a 4th grade level after his accident and the hospital claims he understood and asked to be sent back to his country?? To a country with poverty and poor, hard to access health care?? However.... do we as a country have a obligation to pay for his long term health care expenses as he was here illegally in a job where he could not legally obtain health insurance because he was here illegally??? We are speaking of a person who never contributed to social security or paid any type of taxes (city, state, or federal).
