Impact of the Shutdown! Economic and Healthcare

The government shutdown will be the topic of conversation from the economic impacts to how long it may last.  Christian Dorsey, of the Economic Policy Institute, will talk about how the shutdown effects the lives of real people (as opposed to politicians and the next election) and the politics behind it.  Dr. Ellen Shaffer, UCSF, will talk about how the Affordable Care Act (ACA) is being impacted, if at all, and how the ACA will impact the lives of millions of currently uninsured Americans.
