Citizens of the United States?

On my way to work this morninig, there's a special interview with the author of the book, Citizens of the United States. - Her husband is an immigrant from Holland. She mentioned that the immigrants appreciate what American offers them such as 911 calls and kids are able to go to school FREE. What she mentioned might be true; yet she did not mention that how much the immigrants have to "pay" for the price such as being discriminated in many aspects such as job opportunities, bullying at neighborhoods, schools and workplace. The author keeps saying how great the Ameria is. ... Oh did she forget to mention that all the citizens of the America have to pay a big price for health insurance?  

I have a best friend she retired ten years ago. She was a special education teacher and served the same school distrcit for over 35 years. Yet she still keeps working part-time because she have to pay for her own health insurance. That is the most ridiculous thing I learned.
