ArchivesWill the NH Primary Have CompanyBy Mark Bevis on Monday, October 3, 2005.It looks like New Hampshire may soon have more company at the beginning of the Presidential Primaries. The Democratic National Committee held public meetings over the weekend as part of a year old commission to review the primary process. New Hampshire's first in the nation status has been criticized because of the state's size and because of its small minority populations. Attorney Michael Atkins is a member of the State Democratic Party's Primary Task Force and he attended the meeting in Washington, DC. He tells NHPR's Mark Bevis that if there was one thing the Commission's Members could agree on, it's that the current system needs to be changed. listen:

Health Savings AccountsBy Laura Knoy on Monday, October 3, 2005.Since President Bush first proposed Health Savings Accounts in 2003, the idea appears to be growing in popularity. These accounts, in which people set aside money tax-free, are used for medical expenses. Supporters of the plan say these personal accounts make people more aware of their health care costs and encourages them to shop around. But opponents say Health Savings Accounts don't work for the most sick or vulnerable. We'll look at what these accounts are, and ask what people like and don't like about them. Laura is joined by Charlie Arlinghaus, president of the Josiah Bartlett Center for Public Policy and Dr. Steve Gorin, Professor of Social Work at Plymouth State University. listen:
