As Calif. Drowns in Debt, Group Advocates For Free Healthcare for Illegals
March 20, 2013 Posted by Warner Todd Huston
Even as the state of California is drowning in debt and already suffering
under an avalanche of unfunded mandates, a powerful healthcare advocacy
group in the Golden State is pushing for free healthcare for all illegal
aliens.
The group, The California Endowment, has launched a new program called “
Health Happens Here” to push expanded healthcare. To highlight the issue,
Cal. Endow. has debuted a new video titled, “Dreaming of Healthcare.”
The video features young, illegal immigrants pleading to be included in
Obamacare as well as California’s healthcare system.
“I’m undocumented, but I dream that one day we will all be treated as one
people, because we are one people,” the young people tell viewers. “Now,
our country has spoken saying that everyone should have affordable
healthcare.”
“I dream that one day, ‘everyone’ will include me,” they say.
This new burden would drive the state further into bankruptcy. California is
already rated as one of the worst run states in the nation.
Having eight of the ten worst foreclosure areas in the nation, the state has
lost over $2 trillion in homeowner equity–a number that exceeds its yearly
income–has the 3rd worst unemployment rate in the country, and finds
within its borders nearly 1/3 of the nation’s welfare recipients.
Cal. Endow. is billed as a “statewide health foundation that was created in
1996 as a result of Blue Cross of California’s creation of WellPoint
Health Networks.” It claims for itself the goal of “expanding access to
affordable, quality health care for underserved individuals and communities.”
On a webpage describing some of the goals of “Health Happens Here,” the
group expresses an interest in a long list of policies typical of a penchant
for central planning by environmentalists and social-democrats. The group
claims to want to pursue control over “land use,” control of what people
eat, control over schools and the workplace, and to institute “fitness”
programs for both kids and adults.
Most importantly, The California Endowment intends to push Obamacare on
Californians and seeks to “educate key audiences about the benefits of the
federal Affordable Care Act and other avenues to preventive health and
community wellness.”
The group also recently put out a Spanish language guide for citizens to
become better informed on ways to take advantage of Obamacare.
In the past, Cal. Endow. has been an advocate of high soda taxes and once
attacked cable TV network Nickelodeon for having advertisements for junk
food.
California Endowment also has ties to President Obama’s controversial
nomination of Thomas Perez for Secretary of Labor. Perez, who has been in
the employ of anti-American billionaire George Soros, was a paid consultant
of Cal. Endow. | S****e
