We don't have the money to provide health care to every person in the country. News flash: we're already trillions of dollars in debt. Where does the pontificating stop and the thinking begin?
A dry well can't bring forth water, and if we waste whatever precious water (time and resources) we have left, we will all die of dehydration. What happens to those poor souls currently without health care- who we can assume are the poorest of the poor- when the resources dry up? Who do you think is going to get the short end of the stick- those with material assets (the middle-class and the wealthy), or those who belong to entitlement programs run by a bankrupt- and therefore impotent- government?
These kind of short-sighted, idyllic crusades will be the ecnomic downfall of this country if we let them come into existence.

And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins.
