From Wikipedia:

Subsidiarity is an organizing principle stating that a matter ought to be handled by the smallest, lowest, or least centralized authority capable of addressing that matter effectively.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines subsidiarity as the idea that a central authority should have a subsidiary function, performing only those tasks which cannot be performed effectively at a more immediate or local level.

Good grief! The majority of the “Catholic” Democrat leaders of today ARE dissenters from Catholic teaching and/or are completely ignorant of it.

They don’t even know (or follow) the teaching on abortion....let alone subsidiarity.
