Episode 2204 notes What’s Wrong with Kansas? The Health of the Sunflower State. Today on America’s Healthcare Advocate and part of my Health Of Our Communities series the topic is our flagship station’s home state of Kansas and the effect of having the 2 nd highest tax rate, being ranked 45 th out of 50 states with a growth of only 1.4% and getting an “F” from CNBC and how all of this affects our lives, or health and our families. Even our states 4 th graders are below 4 th grade level proficiency. My friend Philip Sarnecki joins me, taking time off from his campaign to discuss what’s wrong and how we bring about a massive turnaround by building business, creating jobs and becoming the best place for business and for families. Philip believes the state governor is like a CEO and that business sense will trump political ambition to bring us a healthy state. What’s wrong with Kansas? Find out as we discuss bringing Kansas from worst to first! This is season 22, episode 4 or America’s Healthcare Advocate. I’m Cary Hall.
