Congressman Joe Wilson - rude but right
"But what of the substance of this? Did Wilson, in fact, have a point? Well, he did. Check out this illuminating post from the Center for Immigration Studies.
Its director Steven Camarota estimates that 6.6 million illegal immigrants could be covered by the HR3200.
Even though HR 3200 states that illegal immigrants are not eligible for the proposed taxpayer-funded affordable premium credits, there is nothing in the bill to enforce this. An amendment was defeated in committee that would have required the use of the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program, used by almost all other means-tested programs of this kind."
