Health Care: We begin the podcast with a comment from Shawna, one of our favorite listeners concerning the sad state of health care for the uninsured in the U.S. Which took us to a video clip of a recent John and Elizabeth Edwards appearance in New Hampshire and their comments on the subject. But beware. Even those with health insurance aren't necessarily assured of the help they need!
Politics: Join us as we review a Republican's assessment of the state of the race for the White House. Never hurts to view issues from all perspectives!
State of New Orleans Two Years After Katrina: The centerpiece for this segment is a fascinating revelation by Greg Palast, La. for Democracy Now, featuring an interview with the Deputy Director of the LSU Hurricane Center concerning what FEMA and the Corps of Engineers knew and when they knew it. You need to listen to this, trust us.
Fair Tax Act Fair?: Who knows, but we're beginning to analyze it as of this podcast. Apparently initially promoted by Neal Boortz and Congressman John Linder, White House aspirant Mike Huckabee has also jumped on the bandwagon, and it's pending as a bill in both houses of Congress. The details make it sound simple but the repercussions are potentially mind-boggling. Jump in with us for this segment!
