Inhaltsangabe

A physician and historian draws from oral histories, archival records, and medical journals to describe the program, which was launched in the 1930s when the Farm Security Administration realized that up to half of defaults on the loans it had made to farmers were due to ill health. Noting that at the time it was cited as a rehearsal and model for national health insurance, he emphasizes how the system can inform current debates about the industry.
