It is pretty troubling that, in our current legal system, corporations protected by statute have more rights than unborn children.

The progressive does all they can to subvert law.

 

The unborn has a right to life and are protected. It is the progressives who have done all they can to subvert it in the most sinister of ways. 

 

As we see now, Planned Parenthood has decided that they can no longer argue against life beginning at conception and are going "so what" and once again changing the language to control the conversation. The conversation, they have managed, went from pro-abortion to pro-choice to now pro-freedom.

 

We can thank Darwin, Sanger and other liked minded heathens for so many devaluing life.

Actually that has never been the case. It has been lawless to subvert it and it is clearly stated in 1 U.S.C. §1 (United States Code), which states:

"In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, unless the context indicates otherwise-- the words "person" and "whoever" include corporations, companies, associations, firms, partnerships, societies, and joint stock companies, as well as individuals;"


What has never been the case?

1. The mandate does not exempt
Catholic charities, schools, universities, or hospitals.



2. The mandate forces these
institutions and others, against their conscience, to pay for things they
consider immoral.
.



3. The mandate forces coverage of
sterilization and abortion-inducing drugs and devices as well as
contraception.  
.



4. Catholics of all political
persuasions are unified in their opposition to the mandate
.



5. Many other religious and secular
people and groups have spoken out strongly against the mandate.
.



6. The federal mandate is much
stricter than existing state mandates.

Really?

The Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) did not establish a single payer healthcare system. It is still a private, for profit insurance system. That tends to happen in for profit systems. It's textbook economics that market failure occurs in the health care system which is why single payer systems tend to be more efficient and less expensive that for profit systems.

This isn't pinko heterodox economics. The same guy who demonstrated the limitations of markets in the health care system also demonstrated the general equilibrium of markets, under idealized conditions, which is the intellectual cornerstone of modern free market economic policies. It's also been know since the early 60's. so why did we have a grossly inefficient and overly expensive healthcare system? See Paul Starr's The Social Transformation of American Medicine.

Single payer health care systems lower the cost of health care.

In December of 2012, Aetna’s CEO Mark Bertolini said at a conference in New York that Obamacare would double health insurance premiums — not in five years, but starting in 2014, when most of the law’s provisions take effect.  Those who make too much to qualify for the federally-subsidized exchanges — a single person who makes more than $44,680 a year, or a family of four that makes more than $92,200 — will experience a “premium rate shock” Bertolini said, and could see their premiums go up 100 percent.

Single payer (Obama-plan)  health care systems will increase  the cost of health care, exponentially
