But, isn't the idea that many health care facilities are closing because they are completely overwhelmed by illegal immigrants also scary? What about the strains on the educational system when schools are so strained by the influx of illegals that they can't provide an education to those who have a legal right to be there? Ask any teacher in southern Ca. if illegals are hurting their ability to teach and you will get a resounding yes. These teachers are on the front line and I believe what the ones I know have told me.
