Anchor babies been in the news lately, and I remember hearing about it in the 80s. 340,000 of them last year (Mex, Central American and Asian).

I read an article about the population increase in our country is massive, mainly due to Anchor Babies ... mostly however, their families as the US Gov't has a policy of keeping families together. One Anchor baby may bring 15 grandparents, parents, cousins, etc to the US legally. US population is increasing dramatically due to this issue.

Question: Understanding medical care is more and more expensive each year, and they come here and are already old, needing a lot of expensive medical attention, who pays for the medical expenses of the old Grandparents of Anchor Babies coming from these other countries?

The US benefits from young immigrants, but old immigrants? Respectful thoughts?
