Sage Michael Winters Gives Catholic Advice on Health Care Bill

Michael Sean Winters of America magazine is giving advice to pro-lifers on the Health Care Bill. I pretty much have not given his advice much thought since the start of this debate when he proclaimed:

Some will say that this proposal amounts to a redistribution of wealth. That’s correct. And, again, this is precisely the kind of redistribution the Pope commends in his encyclical. It is not taking from some to give to others for the hell of it. It is taxing those who have grown rich through their own industry and through the opportunities for growing rich our society affords them, to give others a fundamental human right, making the entire society more just and, just so, more productive, opening even more opportunities for the investor class to make more money.

I vote for Democrats for one primary reason. They raise taxes on the rich. It remains a good reason to vote for them. Now, so long as they can keep the abortion funding out of the bill, this health care reform could become the first outstanding example of a policy that reflects Benedict’s call for a more just society.

I am not sure where he is getting that the Pope would endorse the primary purpose of all this was to redistribute wealth. I think he would more concerned it like actually worked. With friends like these no wonder Obama is in trouble.

However he now is giving advice to Pro-lifers and saying we better support this or else we might be up a creek without a paddle. . That is we are really helping the Pro Abort crowd. Darwin Catholic responds well to this not very impressive argument at How To Solve Health Care
