You bring up a good point about medical care. While our healthcare system leaves a lot to be desired, theirs is almost medieval. One of my Mexican Resident Alien workers was telling me a bunch of horror stories about IMSS(my girlfriend works for IMSS). His bottom line is that you should never go there, unless you are dying, because "you go in there a little sick, trying to get well, and they will kill you". I've seen some of this butchery first hand. My girlfriend was having severe stomach pains, so I took her to a private hospital, and the bastards wanted to cut her open - saying it was a topical pregnancy. Luckily, she isn't you typical ignorant Mexican, and resisted. We managed to get ourselves over to the Red Cross, and they properly diagnosed her problem as severe indigestion, and treated her with intravenous antibiotics. Ever wonder why so many of those putas over 30 years old have those nasty diagonal scars across the top of their guts? It isn't from a C-section - it is from Mexican butcher doctors wanting to make a quick buck off of bad cases of indigestion.
