SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Graciela Barrios, an undocumented immigrant with few resources, has long relied on the county health clinic for the advice, medication and tests that have kept her diabetes under control.
But next month, Barrios and thousands like her will be on their own, and many more people across the nation face the same fate.
Bowing to recession-related budget pressures, Sacramento County recently took the drastic step of cutting non-emergency health services for illegal immigrants. Contra Costa County, on the east side of San Francisco Bay, will vote on a similar measure Tuesday

The illegals broke the system by overwhelming it and being here illegally and not paying taxes. So now they have the balls to whine. Amazing isn't it. I sure hope the dope doesn't plan on covering these people under the universal plan. We will all suffer this fate.
Pope - in most situations food is not taxed. At least where I live. Processed foods like gummi bears are, but not fresh produce.
