Hundreds of Undocumented Immigrants Protest Loss of Free Health Care in Spain
Hundreds of people protested in downtown Madrid Saturday against a measure that will leave undocumented immigrants without access to free health care, saying the decision by Spain’s governing Popular Party amounts to “health apartheid.”
The demonstrators cried out against Saturday’s enactment of a measure that will strip the more than 150,000 illegal immigrants in Spain of their national health cards.
It was included in a government decree imposing urgent savings measures to safeguard the future of public health care amid a severe financial crisis and an unemployment rate of nearly 25 percent.
Some 30 organizations and civil society groups, immigrant and refugee associations and defenders of human rights, grouped as the Network for the Right to Have Rights, rallied in front of Madrid’s Gregorio Marañon Hospital.
Those taking part, many of them foreigners living in Spain, chanted slogans like “No human being is illegal” and “Popular Party, Ku Klux Klan,” while demanding the resignation of Health Minister Ana Mato.
Joining in the protest were opposition politicians including the Socialist Party’s executive secretary for cooperation and immigration, Marisol Perez, who demanded that the administration “correct” what it has done and put and end to this “health apartheid,” which she described as “cruel, inhuman and ineffectual.”
Yoro, 22, an immigrant from Gambia, spoke in the name of his best friend who is suffering from liver cancer and has no papers, out of fear that he will be left without treatment under the new regulation.
“We’ll die if they don’t treat us; the government has to correct what it did, it can’t leave us to our fate because we have no money to pay for treatment,” the young man told Efe.
The health minister annulled Saturday the health cards of all foreigners who pay no contributions to Spain’s Social Security and of Spaniards who have never worked and have incomes above 100,000 euros ($125,000) a year.
Foreigners without papers will only be eligible for urgent care in the case of accidents, serious illnesses, or pregnancy, birth and puerperium, except in the case of minors under age 18, who will received the same services as other Spaniards.
From Doctors of the World, spokesman Mario Perez asked the government to repeal the decree because, he said, it violates the right to health care and will collapse the urgent care centers because undocumented immigrants will now have nowhere else to go, thus leading to “costs rather than savings.”
No official data exist about people living in Spain without a visa, though comparing the number of foreigners in the National Statistics Institute with those who do not figure in the registry of Spain’s Employment Ministry shows 569,946 people “without papers.”
Of these, some 153,469 are illegal immigrants from Latin America and other non-European Union countries, the hardest hit by this measure, since they belong to a vulnerable group with little money, while the rest are foreigners of irregular status from other EU countries.
Several medical organizations have launched a conscientious objection campaign declaring they will not obey the decree, to which some 1,800 health professionals have joined in.
At the same time, the regional governments of Catalonia, Galicia, the Basque region, Castilla y Leon, Navarra, Andalusia and Asturias have already announced that they will continue treating the undocumented.

The Spanish can’t pay for health care for the whole world, can they?
ASIA FOR THE ASIANS, AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS, WHITE COUNTRIES FOR EVERYBODY!
Everybody says there is this RACE problem. Everybody says this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries.
The Netherlands and Belgium are just as crowded as Japan or Taiwan, but nobody says Japan or Taiwan will solve this RACE problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.
Everybody says the final solution to this RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.
What if I said there was this RACE problem and this RACE problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into EVERY black country and ONLY into black countries?
How long would it take anyone to realize I’m not talking about a RACE problem. I am talking about the final solution to the BLACK problem?
And how long would it take any sane black man to notice this and what kind of psycho black man wouldn’t object to this?
But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against my race, the white race, Liberals and respectable conservatives agree that I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews.
They say they are anti-racist. What they are is anti-white.
Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.
History must not be your forte. Europeans went all over this world laying claim to other people’s land while committing genocide and forcing the indigenous into their religions, as well as used them as free labor to build European cities on their land. Think South Africa, Australia, New Guinea, New Zealand, Togo, Hawaii, Fiji Islands, North South and Central Americas to include the Carribean Islands, the list goes on and on. Come to think of it those people did object to European rulership and yet they’re still there, so what’s your point again?
LOL #1: When the anti-White elites invest money and social engineering into a word, they never let it go to waste and, in fact, often overreach; e.g., protestors IN SPAIN complaining about the “KKK” and “apartheid”. What’s next? The Roma complaining about Jim Crow?
LOL #2: Betsy, you trot out that old anti-White version of history that is hammered into the head of every school child. It’s all white devils and white oppression, 24/7. Nobody ever sheds tears at what the Mongols did to Russia, about the brown-on-white violence at the Battle of Tours or the Gates of Vienna. Nobody ever justifies bad treatment of Middle Easterners or Mexicans based on the domineering Sumerians or Aztecs. But people always act like Europeans are the arch-criminals of the world when they want to justify the ongoing white genocide.
You said “trot out the old anti-white version of history”. Are you saying it’s not true? Well The Smiling Weirwood how did Europeans end up around the world owning the resources of other people’s lands and subjugating the original inhabitants? There’s no hiding who’s running this planet and the ill effects others are suffering due to those in power. We can pretend there’s this pick on the “anti-white” agenda happening or we can stop denying and tell the whole story which will explain why people are so embittered towards Europeans. White genocide? Really? Who do you look to as the culprit? You best look at your own people who kill millions annually regardless to their racial identity for money thanks to the Military Industrial Complex and Wall Street. So if there is genocide happening to “white” people they need only look at themselves because their enemies look just like them.
Correction:

Betsy: Thank you for the response. I am not saying that Europeans did not conquer other lands. When I refer to the “anti-White” version of history, I am referring to the myopic version of history that seems to virtually begin with European expansion and ignore everything else, and this version of history is given so as to socially engineer hatred and resentment against whites. As I said, nobody talks about Mongol expansion and the conquering of parts of Russia, or the Battle of Tours, after Muslims had pushed into the heart of Europe. Very few know that the word “slave” derives from the Slavs, since so many were sold into slavery to brown Muslims.
It is simple social engineering. Everybody thinks that Black Elk is still crying in the Otherworld, and that whites should give the Paha Sapa back to the Lakota. But nobody gives two rips whether the Lakota give them back to the Cheyenne. Here is how history is taught: Red on Red violence = history. Black on black violence = history. Yellow on yellow violence = history. Brown on white violence and yellow on white violence = history. White on red/black/brown violence = TROLOLOLOLOL OMG THE ARCH-CRIME OF HISTORY WHITES ARE EVIL BUTCHERS! And it is done so to facilitate the ongoing genocide of whites.
All the best!
Betsy: You said, “Really? Who do you look to as the culprit?” That is irrelevant as to whether or not genocide is actually happening. When the police visit the crime scene of a butchered family, they look at the evidence of the crime, whether or not they know who committed it.
Serious question: Have you read the U.N. Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide? These are among the things listed as genocidal acts:
(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
Virtually all and only white countries are being flooded with hundreds of millions of non-whites. No vote was ever taken in these countries to give up their national identity and ethnic homogeneity. If whites speak up about this or dissent, they are hit with a hate crime, charged with racism, fired from their job, etc. Whites are taught to hate the color of their own skin and virtually forbidden to associate with each other AS WHITES in many countries. We are 8% of the world population and falling. In 200 years it is possible that there will be virtually no white babies, if the trend continues. It IS genocide.
The Smiling Weirwood you can’t ignore the fact that caucasians are inhabiting countries that are not theirs in which they claim due to conquering. When caucasians can freely get out of other people’s countries and return the control of those countries back to the original inhabitants they can demand and expect the same within their own. Until then they can’t gripe about immigrants be they legal or not when they themselves are immigrants in lands not their own. They can’t cry about what they perceive as “white” genocide when they are committing such acts on other people daily around this globe. The Golden Rule is golden because when people can give out the treatment they want to receive harmony will prevail.
It’s not about having a “anti-white” sentiment it’s about tracing back a societal problem to it’s beginning. The Smiling Weirwood the reason people don’t start with the Mongols or some other group when talking about genocide or mass mistreatment is because the people running this planet at this very moment committing these types of transgressions are not Mongol, they are Caucasian. So when people attempt to explain the current world dilemma they can’t start with the Mongols they must find the point in which the current ruling people came into power and trace it up to the present. The world has been dealing with the aggression of “whites” for nearly 500 years.
