Medicaid Done Right

This afternoon, I was running on the treadmill and listening to an old Planet Money podcast (yes, let the record show that I both exercised and learned economics via NPR today), and was startled to hear a familiar voice.  Even though "some of my best friends" are teachers, I still find it weird to spot my own outside of the classroom.  Yet there one was.  Professor Kate Baicker was on the radio (the cool kids do not have a nickname for her, because we were never actually cool enough to talk to her much) and explaining the effects of Medicaid in a simple, beautiful way that I admire.  It's exactly what I'm trying to do here.  But like DHem, she does it much more eloquently.  Check it out, if you haven't already.
