Show Notes

Government regulation is a force that influences nearly every aspect of our daily lives. The intentions are usually well-meaning. They are created to fix a problem or a perceived market failure. The problem that we run into time and time again is that the fixes usually create another problem, while only putting a temporary patch over the initial problem. The response is usually another patch with the same result. Listen to the debate between Nobel laureate George Stigler and consumer advocate Mark Green in the latest episode of the Free To Choose Media Podcast.
