Part3
The social doctrine of the Catholic Church (166) recognizes the necessity of the state to act within its power for the common good and includes "basic health care."  One of the problems with the ACA (and the current plan) as I see it is that it conflates "health care" with "health insurance"; the two are not the same.  Basic health care should be affordable on its own, with health insurance available for catastrophic events - this should also be affordable and include the provisions eliminating the pre-existing condition and lifetime maximum limits, among others.
