No free lunches, only fences.

The old saying, there are no free lunches", is quite accurate, and applies to our immigration and health care problems. First, to solve the illegal immigrant issue is really quite simple,build a fence,protect the border.If this is a country and not an international soup kitchen we must have borders.Otherwise,we live in a big lump of dirt, which certainly then does not require a flag or a constitution, or even an official language, for that matter. Sounds kinda like one giant penal colony , like that movie Escape from New York .Iguess that would make president Bush the Duke of New York, like  the Issac Hayes character.
Build the fence, for Christ,s sake! If fences don't work , then why do they put them around prisons?
Next, punish companies and employers who hire these people.If you hire an illegal, a monetary fine and possible prison sentence would certainly persuade companies to check backgrounds of potential employees. If they can't get work, they will be back over that border  faster than Speedy Gonzales!
Now, Health Care. You can't have free health care. This country is a free democracy , not a socialist bread line. Affordable health care in a free market where the buyer can pick and choose in a healthy capitalistic competition is how it works in free nations with free enterprise economies.If you don,t like it, go live in a socialist country that gives handouts and free health care.If you like waiting several months for emergency surgery that is. All the people of France and Canada come here for treatment when they are really sick. The reason?According to these foreigners, we have the best health care in the world! Shocking isn,t it?After all, freebies usually are the best indication of a high quality product, right?
And it is not free, by the way.These  countries are just more brazen at picking their citizens pockets with taxes that pay for the treatment of people too lazy to work, and too lazy to exercise,quit smoking ,or watch their diets.Whats next? Free Lunches??
