Tuesday in class we went over health and nutrition policy and we got to watch a funny video clip on how a bill becomes a law. There are many steps between defining the problem and policy implementation, but I believe that our government is set up that way to make sure that the programs and services we offer are truly necessary and working. If they are not, or if the program becomes irrelevant then there is always the "policy evaluation" step of the process that can determine if the program should be terminated or re-vamped.
I'm sad to say that the focus of Tuesday's lecture was a bit dry, but nonetheless it was an important topic to brush over to appreciate all of the programs we will be focusing on during week 4.
