Hodge, Jr., and the topic of our discussion is the United States healthcare system. Is healthcare a right or a privilege? Should our tax dollars underwrite the cost of those experiencing poverty? Do vaccine mandates impede on Americans' constitutional rights? What about religious exemptions? Where do we stand? What are the implications of the Supreme Court's decision in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo on public health policy? Listen as Daniel sat down with Prof. Hodge to elucidate the U.S. healthcare system and its challenges. They discuss the legal implications of recent SCOTUS decisions and the Constitution; Medicare and Medicaid; vaccinations; and the obvious win in addressing consumable vices.
