In this episode, we talk about Universal Healthcare with two guests - Dr. Ed Weisbart, an advocate for a single-payer national health program, and Franklin Delano “Denny” Roth II, a U.S. Congressional candidate for Missouri’s 8th district. We unpack some of the major challenges of implementing Universal Healthcare in the United States.

Dr. Weisbart, with his extensive background in medicine and health advocacy, represents the Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP). He brings his expertise from a career spanning multiple roles in the healthcare sector to advocate for a comprehensive national health insurance system where every person in America is covered. He passionately cares about providing accessible and equitable healthcare for all Americans.

Denny Roth addresses the political hurdles and societal resistance to Universal Healthcare. Even though Universal Healthcare presents a simpler and far less expensive alternative to today’s current healthcare system, there are political barriers to overcome nevertheless.
