Thomas Frank asserts that the Republican Party built a winning coalition in recent elections by convincing white working-class voters to cast their ballots on the basis of cultural wedge issues.

Our findings suggest that a market mechanism may improve the prescribing quality of regional and district hospitals under a market structure composed of three level hospitals where more medical resources a...
