More on Subsidiarity

More on Subsidiarity by MSW.  MGB: Essentially, he argues that Catholic doctrine calls for libertarian socialism.  Of course, modern politics does not have any room for libertarian socialists, even of the Christian variety.  Indeed, my very real libertarian socialist presidential campaign in Americans Elect was ignored in the Catholic press, including this blog.  By the way, a libertarian socialist solution to health care would be to offer a public program supported by taxes on employers, with employers having the option to opt out and provide superior care (including hiring its own doctors and having its own hospital beds) and thus avoid the tax.  This is different from a pure libertarian solution, which would be to remove all group advantages to purchasing health insurance and leave all families at the mercy of private markets.  Since libertarians don't like regulating monopolies, these would be very harsh markets indeed.
