Oh No Another Bishop Against Obama Care

Read the whole thing!! Yeah while he hits on the non negotiables that make this currently a non go for Oothodox Catholic hits something else:

Besides these important principles, other thorny questions must be answered. One might legitimately ask if giving a large, inefficient, but powerful bureaucracy like the federal government control of health care is a wise move. For one, this runs counter to the well-known principle of subsidiarity, so prominent in Catholic social teaching: “a community of a higher order should not interfere in the internal life of a community of a lower order, depriving the latter of its functions, but rather should support it in case of need and help to coordinate its activity with the activities of the rest of society, always with a view to the common good." "The principle of subsidiarity is opposed to all forms of collectivism. It sets limits for state intervention.” (cf. Catechism of the Catholic Church, nos. 1883,1885). One might consider this the principle of social dignity

.How much of a role the government should have is a matter of prudential judgment, however, there are ethical dimensions to this question. Certainly, it has a role to play, but that does not necessarily mean that it should be the sole provider of health care. The government can act to remove abuses, and to regulate the health care industry so that the markets efficiently serve all the people. Government may also be needed to see that no one, especially the working poor and the most destitute and forgotten, falls through the cracks. But, the essential element of the principle of subsidiarity is the protection of individual freedoms from unjust micromanagement and manipulation by the state.
