Broad redistributive programs

Medicare and Medicaid were broad redistributive programs. The intended beneficiaries were population groups: the aged (Medicare) and the poor(Medicaid). Although health providers also benefited from these programs,Medicare and Medicaid were clearly different from producer-type regulations (which are also redistributive). Medicare and Medicaid were “visible”forms of redistribution, the legislative debates were publicized, and the intended beneficiaries were specific population groups. Please be sure to answer and address each question (1-4) in paper. 1. Discuss what a redistributive program is. 2. What is the difference between redistributive and non-redistributive program. 3. What are the two classifications under the theory of broad redistributive programs. 4. Provide a detailed discussion on each type. For example, who would support each one; who benefits; what type of costs are involved. Your paper should be 3 to 5 pages in length (excluding title page, abstract, reference page, and appendices). The paper should be in APA format.
