Ep 318 | Trump vs. Biden 2020: Health Care

It's the last episode in our election series before the big day on Nov. 3. This time, we break down the health care situation in America and the two presidential candidates' positions on it. The legacy of "Obamacare" is on the line, and Americans will have a chance to voice their opinion on it through the ballot. One side wants to lessen government involvement in health care, while the other wants to build upon Obamacare to eventually obliterate private insurance.
