No economist played as large a role in devising and pushing forward the Affordable Care Act as Jon Gruber, one of my former MIT colleagues. He gets a lot of the credit for the 10-year stretch when America, like every other advanced country, guaranteed adequate health care to the great majority of its citizens.
But MAGA is putting an end to all that. So I talked with Jon about how the ACA came to be, what happens now, cuts to medical research and more. It’s not as depressing a conversation as you might think!
