Don't do this... No one here suggested that having leukaemia should be enough to qualify for a green card.

Why not? The article suggests that they should be allowed to stay because it’s an ill child (which also won’t be able to afford treatment anyway)

This is a legit good question, someone who walks across the border is extremely unlikely to be able to afford cancer treatment.
There’s a near infinite supply of needy people in the world. What is the legitimate, rational argument for allowing them all to come here and receive aid and treatment?
Even if you decide you’re not going to “allow” it, if the incentives still exist, like California’s free healthcare for illegal immigrants, they will still come because the benefits are worth the risk.

#8Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
The New Colossus, Emma Lazarus, 1883

What an insanely cruel thought lacking any semblance of basic decency and humanity.
Is there really no cure for MAGA mind virus?

I bet you’re real fun at parties.
