We've already discussed this one. It's the largest non government provider...after stealing the governments money. The US government both pays and subsidizes the catholic church. Then, there's the issue of the quality of care provided. Which is decidedly less than what the us...and basic human decency...demands.
Churches established themselves in farmland and within oversight of medicine so that they could control and profit from them. For much of the time, they were a taxing authority. Its a mafia that operates daycares...and boy did that not age well, huh?
...and how did they get there. By a long history of philanthropic good? No. Murder, theft, rape. Complicity in every imaginable scheme that any crook ever dreamt up and pitched to a con man wearing a dress while casting a magic spell over a fucking cracker. If there was a single christian left in the rcc they'd have all forced it to shutter by now - but who am I kidding, the good christian man is just another centering trope gifted to us by the same for purposes of social control and minority rule.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
