Description

50 years ago, Medicare was created and some of it was recorded. We'll look at the original conversations that demonstrate LBJ's work on the bill, and compare the enactment of Medicare to the Affordable Care Act. And we'll contrast the two bill's passages and implementation, effect and popularity. Based on a previous cast called 'Medicare Atmosphere' from 2010... but updated and re-recorded.
