Catholisism

Strongly agree

Yes

Catholicism emphasizes the importance of caring for the poor and vulnerable. The Catholic Church has a long history of providing healthcare services through its hospitals and clinics. Increasing funding for Medicaid aligns with these values, as it would help low-income individuals access healthcare. However, the score is not a 5 because Catholicism does not specifically advocate for Medicaid as the only solution.

Agree

Yes, but I prefer switching to a single payer healthcare system

Catholicism might be open to the idea of a single-payer healthcare system, as it could potentially provide healthcare to more people in need. However, the score is not higher because Catholicism does not have a specific stance on single-payer healthcare systems.

Agree

Yes, but only increase for the elderly and disabled

Catholicism would likely support increasing funding for the elderly and disabled, as they are vulnerable populations. However, the score is not higher because this answer does not address the needs of all low-income individuals, which is an important aspect of Catholic social teaching.

Disagree

No, and each state should decide their own level of coverage

Catholicism would likely disagree with leaving healthcare coverage decisions to individual states, as this could lead to disparities in care for low-income individuals. However, the score is not lower because Catholicism does not have a specific stance on federal vs. state control of healthcare.

Disagree

Disagree

No, and eligibility should only include the elderly and disabled

No, and the federal government should not increase funding for any social programs

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish Medicaid
