Health care Q&A with T.R. Reid

Now that the dust has settled—and the bricks have stopped flying—the general public is beginning to pick apart the details of the health care plan that is now the law of the land.  How will your individual insurance change, if at all?  If you’re one of the young “invincibles,” what’s the penalty for not buying insurance?  If you’re a parent, how long before your twenty-something can continue to stay on your insurance?  Now that health care is available to millions more, is there a new conversation to be had about personal responsibility for one’s health? And on a larger level, how does the U.S. health care plan now square with other developed countries? Patt and her guest, Dr. T.R. Reid take any and all of your questions.

 

Guests:

T.R. Reid, correspondent for The Washington Post and author of “The Healing of America: A Global Quest for Better, Cheaper, and Fairer Health Care”

Vatican launches a defense as the Catholic Church is in turmoil over growing sex abuse scandal 

As Catholics around the globe watch, the Vatican was dragged deeper than ever into the clerical sex abuse scandal as it launched a legal defense aimed at protecting the Pope from a lawsuit brought in the United States which seeks to have him answer attorney’s questions under oath.  Coming in the midst of growing controversy and turmoil over allegations of sexual abuse and scrutiny of Pope Benedict’s handling of abuse cases when he was archbishop of Munich, Catholics are torn in their response. Will the faithful turn their backs on the Church?  Some say “yes” – some say “no.”

John Allen, Senior Correspondent of the National Catholic Reporter and author of Opus Dei: An Objective Look Behind the Myths and Reality of the Most Controversial Force in the Catholic Church

Known to Evil

 “Leonid McGill is still fighting to stick to his reformed ways while the world around him pulls him in every other direction. He has split up with his girlfriend, her new boyfriend is angling to get Leonid kicked out of his prime office space, one of his sons seems to have found true love in a girl with a shady past, and his other son is doing nothing but enabling the crisis. Most ominously of all, Alfonse Rinaldo has a problem that even he can't fix: a young woman has disappeared, leaving murder in her wake, and it means everything to Rinaldo to track her down. But he won't tell McGill his motives, which doesn't quite square with the new company policy- but turning down Rinaldo is almost impossible to even contemplate. “
 

Guests:

Walter Mosley, author of “Known to Evil”
