Hillary Clinton attack on single-payer wrongheaded
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
Today we talk about the recent attack by Hillary Clinton on Bernie Sanders’ single-payer health care plan. Many of us do not use our medical system because we have not had to. As such, much is theoretical when we speak about health care. The problem is the few times it is needed, for most it can be the time when one realizes how screwed up it really is.
Before I get to the program I have a few announcements.
- The Secular Social Justice Conference will be held at Rice University’s Sewall Hall, Saturday and Sunday January 30th and 31st. If you are interested in fighting for social justice in communities of color visit http://www.secularsocialjustice.com for more information or contact Donald Wright at (281) 782 -0729
