America is full of paradoxes. The US has flown to the moon, mapped the human genome, and built the largest economy in the world. However, the US also grapples with lower life expectancy, higher infant mortality, and greater poverty than most developed countries. Our esteemed guest, Patricia A. McCoy, Professor of Law at Boston College and author of the upcoming And Economic Wellbeing For All, sheds light on these issues and proposes specific policy steps forward to address a range of milestones including economic insecurity, healthcare costs, university affordability, retirement, and homeownership. Tune in for a compelling discussion on shaping a more inclusive and prosperous United States.
