Welcome to the programme, i am Christian Fraser in london, katty kay is in washington. The Hillsborough Disaster is the worst tragedy english football has ever seen. In april 1989, as an fa cup semi final kicked off between liverpool and nottingham forest, a crush at one end of the stadium, led to 96 deaths. For 28 years the families have fought for justice. Last year the Hillsborough Inquest ruled the fans were unlawfully killed. But what the families still dont have is accountability. Who was really to blame . Today having reviewed thousands of documents from two seperate inquiries, the Crown Prosecution Service announced it w
With a compromise and it was called the private option. To make a long story short, it was about taking the Medicaid Expansion dollars that were available but using them to purchase private insurance on the Health Insurance exchange. This was a really innovative approach. It didnt mean that it passed easily. I think we had to take about six or seven votes mainly because extremes on both sides we were just hear about were pretty dug in on the issue. I will tell you even though we were able to pass the private option, there were members of both parties who lost elections as a result afterwards, just in 2014. People were primaried, people instrumental passing that policy lost their elections but ill tell you, im a democrat. I was for moving forward with the expansion from the beginning but part of, i think one.

Now we had another very interesting chapter on the extent to which marriage matters for child wellbeing. Is a child who grows up in a twoparent family better off than a child that grows up in a oneparent family . Are children in married families better off than children in cohabiting families, and this adds to all the literature on those issues, and basically all of that literature, of which theres a ton now, has led, i think, presiden think, pretty much to a consensus that on average, on average, growing up in a twoparent married family is better for kids than not. That said, you have to then ask, well, why should marriage matter . And one reason it matters is simply because the people who marry are a selfselected group. They have other characteristics li
Could do that, but it wouldnt fully replace the benefits that children now derive from marriage itself. We had a lot of debate around the production of the volume and amongst the authors about whether or not or why theres been this decline. Everybody agreed there was a decline. The issue is why. And these are the usual factors that get debated and talked about. Womens new opportunities have made them clearly less dependent on marriage. Its no longer something they need for their economic wellbeing. And then theres the argument that men, especially lesseducated men, have not been doing well in the labor market. Declining employment and earnings. And that has made them less marriageable. And this the lack of marriageable men, it is argued, has been a contributing factor to the decline in marriage. Finally, there are arguments about whether Government Programs are inhibiting marriage, because if you marry somebody that has additional income, you may become ineligible for various programs,
