Last night TIME’s Steven Brill discussed his cover story “Bitter Pill: Why Medical Bills Are Killing Us” with the Daily Show‘s Jon Stewart.  Watch the interview aired on Comedy Central above.

Stewart asked Brill to extend the interview to post up on the web.  Part 2 of the Daily Show interview can be found online here. Stewart opens the segment with the following:

This should be required reading not only for every individual for this country, but lawmaker in this country.  I feel like this should be a Silent Spring moment for health care, because it is shining a light on something that I think people have struggled with, but have not been able to articulate the damage that is being done. This is an incredible articulation of that damage.

Part 3 on Obamacare and ambulances’ profits can be found here.
