the rest of your post is common sense and as i stated i feel it is a complete misuse of talent forcing docs to treat illegals and it is theft to not pay them for such treatment.
i believe stories like Moses' should be front page news and something needs to be done YESTERDAY about it.

Sorry, barettafan. You're right. The costs can be deducted. But there's no income coming in to cover them. Moses is asked to step aside and dismiss his fee. But the creditors whom Moses owe aren't similarly asked to do so.
