Description

Professor Charles Stanton and third-year law student Blanca Peña discuss the lack of cooperation among U.S. government branches, particularly affecting food stamp benefits and healthcare. They highlight the inertia of Congress, leading to potential government shutdowns and the defunding of Medicaid and Obamacare. Blanca criticizes the government's focus on individualism over community support, citing the treatment of the homeless and the impact of federal benefit cuts on millions, including children and underpaid workers. They also discuss the societal prejudice against the poor and the need for collective action to address these issues.
