To save Grady, Cobb chair says look under Gold Dome

Saving Grady Memorial Hospital from financial ruin requires a state-wide solution. So says Atlanta Regional Commission chair Sam Olens. He says Cobb County, where he chairs the board of commissioners, can't bail out Grady because Cobb hospitals spend more on Atlanta's indigent patients than vice-versa.

In this Podcast, Olens also predicts Atlanta's long legal battle over water is likely to end up in the U.S. Supreme Court.
