If it sounds like a birthright, looks like a birthright and smell like one too, then I call it a birthright.

OK. I call it a benefit that happens to take effect at birth and you call it a birthright. Whatever the word, the question remains: why would that be unconstitutional?

If congress voted a benefit for nursing home care to everyone when they hit 90, that's the same kind of benefit but with a different effective date. Surely that wouldn't be unconstitutional so I don't know why Kate's catastrophic healthcare for newborns would be.
