“Those Who Write the Laws Stand to Gain”
Americans are struggling to make ends meet and policymakers continue the assault on the pocketbooks of the Middle Class. Today Dr. Marilyn M. Singleton, MD, JD joins the show to give us a birds-eye view in medical reform. The media and party policy seems more interested in attacking the Presidents administration other than fixing medicine. Healthcare sits on the brink of collapse and no one seems to care.Repetitive reporting and the laziness of the American voter to vet the information they are receiving is causing a paradigm to allow the incumbent to stay in office. A 14% approval rating but Congress gets elected at a 93% rate. An astounding statistic if you believe the rhetoric of draining the swamp.
