No, the problem is when you base your assumption that they're not entitled to 'free' treatment' because they apparently look foreign, as if that makes any difference. Don't worry I'm fully aware you only started this thread as pseudo humour but still, interesting points have emerged as a result.
If they only just arrived in the UK for treatment and intent to leave without paying for it (which happens a LOT) then that's a massive problem and I'm with you on that. But that's not what you're saying.
How do you know they haven't been living here all their working lives and paid in to the NHS? The argument that how long they've been hear means they're unlikely to have contributed enough falls flat on it's face if you think of an 18 year old having his first pay packet then needing emergency treatment - has he paid in enough?
