The Dump administration is haphazardly attacking all aspects of our federal government, including agencies that are tasked with protecting not only the US' population, but the world's. We've been talking a lot about our social safety net -- attacks on Medicare/Medicaid and Social Security, attacks on due process and civil rights, and equality for all people. They're also taking aim at all the rules put in place over the decades to help protect us from unscrupulous business practices that put our health - and the health of the planet - at risk.Today, in addition to the shitstorm of news that hit since we last spoke yesterday, today, we'll look at their actions that put everything on earth in peril, from the new EPA administrator up and down....... Earth Day is only two weeks away. Will it still be spinning? We're joined today by a dear friend of the show and the planet, Sandy Schoelles of the Environmental Coffeehouse!

America's health crisis is worse than you think. Calley Means, White House health adviser, joins James Poulos to discuss how corporate cronyism and corruption in the food and pharma industries are making Americans, especially children, more sick for profit. Means exposes how corporate lobbying and financial incentives poison Americans. Our food system has been weaponized to be addictive, contributing to skyrocketing rates of obesity, chronic disease, and mental health decline. The COVID-19 lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and information censorship showed the dangers of centralized health authority and gave rise to the MAHA movement. The Trump administration is changing the way we see scientific transparency and health freedoms with the appointments of Jay Bhattacharya to the NIH and RFK Jr. to HHS. Means argues we need to incentivize health and shift government programs like Medicare/Medicaid and food stamps to healthier alternatives. Learn more about your ad choices.

Mike Nedelcovych surveys the GLP-1 space after the FDA declared the shortage over, boosting makers like NVO and LLY and hurting compounding pharmacies like HIMS, who will stop offering the drugs. He thinks GLP-1s have the “wind at their back,” but notes that the government may be cracking down on Medicare/Medicaid use of the drugs. However, he says that Medicare expansion would be “icing on the cake.”======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

TRAILERWelcome to episode 79 of the One for the Money podcast. I am always glad and grateful you have taken the time to listen. This part 1 of a 2 part series on Medicare. Medicare is a significant part of every single American's retirement planning. Knowledge of Medicare is critical to making the most of your retirement. In this episode I'll share what you need to understand about Medicare and in Episode 80 airing on February 15th, I'll share the Misunderstandings and Mistakes people make with Medicare.In the tips, tricks, and strategies portion I will share a tip regarding Medicare enrollment.In this episode...Rising Healthcare Costs [1:53]Medicare Basics [2:57]Importance of Annual Medicare Reviews [12:03]MAINIn Episode 79 of the One for the Money podcast, I shared how the first wealth is health. I also shared the importance of exercise and nutrition and how they can increase not only one's life span, but their health span, which is the years one has good health. Because healthier retirees incur fewer health related expenses it really is in retirees long term financial interest to INVEST in their health because health care related expenses in retirement are WAY higher than what most people anticipate.In fact last August, the investment company Fidelity released its Fidelity's latest Retiree Health Care Cost Estimate, which surveyed retirees. Most individuals surveyed expect their share of health care related expenses in retirement to be ~ $75,000 retirement (or $150k per couple), but current retiree healthcare expense data shows that each individual should expect to pay $165,000 or $330k/couple in retirement for health care expenses. That is more than double what people estimate they will have to shell out. Now these estimates assume that these individuals have health care coverage through Medicare. This might have many scratching their heads wondering what Medicare actually pays for. Quite a lot actually, it's just that health care is incredibly expensive especially as one ages.I'll first explain what Medicare is and what it takes to be eligible before explaining why health care costs in retirement are still expensive even with Medicare. Medicare is health insurance for retired Americans. According to usdebtclock.org, the the US government spent ~ $1.8 Trillion dollars on Medicare/Medicaid in 2024 which accounts for over 25% of the annual Federal budget. Some of Medicare is paid for through payroll taxes. Employees pay 1.45% of their income and employers pay another 1.45% of their employees income to the government to help fund Medicare and Medicaid. These are part of the Federal Insurance Contributions Act or (FICA) taxes that we pay on our income. Social Security is funded with a tax of 6.2% paid by the employee and another 6.2% paid by the employer. However this is only paid on the first $176,100 of income. Any income earned above that level is not subject to the SS tax, and that's because there is an upper limit on the social security benefit one could receive. However, the 1.45% medicare tax has no income limit so whether a person earns income of $10,000 or $10 million the Medicare taxes are applied to the entire amount. Now Medicare has been around for a long time. In 1935: President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal included the Social Security Act, which provided retirement benefits but did not include health insurance. Efforts to include health coverage in the program were unsuccessful due to political opposition.By the 1960s, about half of Americans over 65...

GDP Script/ Top Stories for January 28th Publish Date: January 28th From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, January 28th and Happy Birthday to Jermain Dye ***01.28.24 - BIRTHDAY – JERMAINE DYE*** I’m Keith Ippolito and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Gwinnett Police Officers Participate In Operation Guthrie's Shield To Support Co-worker Snellville Resident Honored as Gwinnett Tech's GOAL Student Six Flags to Spotlight State’s Gold Rush History with New Ride All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG (07.14.22 KIA MOG) STORY 1: Gwinnett Police Officers Participate In Operation Guthrie's Shield To Support Co-worker Gwinnett County Police officers held "Operation Guthrie’s Shield," a traffic enforcement detail inspired by Officer Ashley Guthrie, who was struck twice by drunk drivers while on duty. The operation, conducted on Jan. 16-17, focused on Georgia’s “Move Over” law, requiring drivers to change lanes or slow down near emergency vehicles. Over five hours, officers made 51 traffic stops, issuing 15 “Move Over” citations, 29 speeding citations, and 26 other violations, along with one DUI arrest. The initiative aimed to raise awareness about highway safety and the risks officers face during nighttime traffic enforcement. STORY 2: Snellville Resident Honored as Gwinnett Tech's GOAL Student Thomas Schoolcraft of Snellville has been named Gwinnett Technical College's Georgia Occupational Award of Leadership (GOAL) winner, selected from 90 nominees out of 11,000 students. An electrical engineering technology student, Schoolcraft credits Gwinnett Tech as his "second chance" after struggling with university studies and various jobs in his 20s. Passionate about math, science, and technology's societal impact, he views this achievement as part of his "redemption arc" and hopes to inspire others. Sponsored by the Technical College System of Georgia, the GOAL program highlights technical education's value. Schoolcraft will compete in regional and statewide competitions this spring. STORY 3: Six Flags to Spotlight State’s Gold Rush History with New Ride Six Flags Over Georgia is set to debut a new family attraction, Georgia Gold Rusher, this spring.

Bill talks with the well-respected Health Policy reporter Sandhya Raman of CQ-Roll Call to get a sense of what Trump's nominees in the health field means for our health and healthcare. There are serious concerns raised by leading health professionals about Donald Trump's nominations to lead major health agencies, including the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and others. The main concerns are that many of Trump's nominees lack prior experience in public health or healthcare policy, and some have controversial views on issues like vaccines and reproductive rights that could jeopardize public health. In particular, the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as HHS Secretary is highly controversial, as he is a well-known anti-vaxxer who could slow down the approval and distribution of vaccines, putting public health at risk. Other concerning nominees include Dr. Mehmet Oz for Medicare/Medicaid, and Dr. David Weldon for the CDC, who have expressed skepticism about vaccines and abortion rights. There are some guardrails that Congress could try to use to block or limit the ability of these nominees to implement harmful policies, but with a Republican trifecta in Washington, their options may be limited. Overall, the transcript suggests that the health of the nation could be in jeopardy under the Trump administration's health policy team, with potential impacts on vaccine distribution, maternal mortality rates, and access to reproductive healthcare.Today's Bill Press Pod is supported by National Nurses United, the largest labor union of Nurses in America.

Today, we are celebrating the 59th anniversary of Medicare and Medicaid being signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson and discussing the profound effect these programs have had in providing health care coverage to the country's most vulnerable populations.Medicare and Medicaid laid the foundation for public health insurance in the United States, ensuring that the elderly, low-income families, and individuals with disabilities receive essential health care services. The Affordable Care Act (ACA), enacted in 2010, built upon this foundation by expanding Medicaid eligibility, providing subsidies lower-income individuals and families to purchase private insurance on exchanges, and implementing protections for people with pre-existing conditions. Medicare, Medicaid, and the ACA have created a more comprehensive safety net for millions of Americans, significantly reducing the uninsured rate and improving access to care.Our guest, Larry Levitt, oversees policy work on Medicaid, Medicare, the ACA, and the health care marketplace for one of the nation's leading health policy organizations. Larry's extensive knowledge will guide us through the following topics:·         Medicaid Coverage: Expansion and post-pandemic redeterminations in the states;·         Evolution of the ACA: The development and impact of enhanced subsidies;·         ACA Challenges: Addressing concerns about bad actors and program issues; and·         Future of Coverage: Insights on the upcoming election and its implications for health care coverage. More: Larry Levitt is the executive vice president for health policy, overseeing KFF's policy work on Medicare, Medicaid, the health care marketplace, the Affordable Care Act, racial equity, women's health, and global health. He previously was editor-in-chief of kaisernetwork.org, which was KFF's online health policy news and information service and directed KFF's communications. Prior to joining KFF, Levitt served as a senior health policy adviser to the White House and the Department of Health and Human Services, working on the development of the Clinton Administration's Health Security Act and other health policy initiatives.

[Original airedate: 9/25/23] Today Crash Connell visits in studio with Scott Schara. Breaking news: Medical Murder outpaces heart disease and cancer. We recap with Scott about "how we got here today". How could this be possible? Schara's research shows three primary, public motivations driving medical murder: it's incentivized, it's profitable, and it's now becoming a mainstream policy position of high-level government and corporate figures in America because of the skyrocketing costs of the Medicare/Medicaid bait and switch program. But the hidden motivation is much darker.

In today's episode I speak with Natalia Chalmers DDS MHSc PhD. We discuss the important or oral and dental health and the intersection with social determinants of health.  Natalia is the first-ever Chief Dental Officer in the Office of the Administrator at the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. In her role, Dr. Chalmers has been advancing the Biden-Harris Administration's commitment to care for the whole person, a key to reducing health disparities and advancing health equity. Natalia is a  board-certified pediatric dentist, oral health policy expert, and public health advocate who brings more than 20 years of clinical, research, industry, and regulatory experience to CMS. She previously served as a Dental Officer at the US Food and Drug Administration. In the spring of 2022, CMS conducted the Oral Health Human-Centered Design Customer Engagement to understand barriers to oral health care access for Medicaid or dual (Medicare-Medicaid) eligible children and adults. As a product of the research, they co-created the “Barriers to Oral Health” illustration with external customers to represent the end-user perspective and highlight the most prominent obstacles individuals' face as they seek to access or provide oral health care.

Hoover Institution's Lanhee Chen returns to survey the current state of the American healthcare system, including Medicare/Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, and private insurance programs — along with new path breaking models, like Direct Primary Care. We discuss policy reforms that could bring much needed transparency and simplicity to care delivery. And we discuss why “choice and access for all” is a better way to think about healthcare policy as opposed to calling it a “human right.” We also talk about the implications of the Supreme Court's recent ruling on affirmative action in college admissions.  Lanhee J. Chen, Ph.D. is the David and Diane Steffy Fellow in American Public Policy Studies at the Hoover Institution and Director of Domestic Policy Studies and Lecturer in the Public Policy Program at Stanford University.
