U.S. prelates are not going to give up the debate and the appeal for "genuine" health care reform that respects life.

The Bishops understand that Obamacare’s very premise of giving the most care to those “most productive” and cutting it to the elderly and new born is not respective of human life.

The Bishops are abysmally ignorant about economics. Of course, they're also abysmally ignorant about physics and chemistry. Fortunately they're wise enough not to make pronouncements about physics and chemistry. Unfortunately, they don't show the same wisdom when it comes to economic issues. They don't even realize when they're talking nonsense.

Everyone has a right to health. If someone poisons you, or breaks your leg, or otherwise diminishes your health, you have been wronged. However, your right to health does not extend to a right to demand that someone else pay for repairs to your health. No one ever has a right to someone else's honestly-gained resources.
