Re-Release: It Hits Home
The Pursuit Podcast
by Libertarianism.org
2y ago
This episode is a re-release of Episode 3 from Season One of the Pursuit. Government, big or small, really does impact people’s lives. And more than that, it sets the tone about what people believe they can do about their own lives. And when government makes people feel as though it’s untrustworthy or the individual is unempowered, in democracy, that’s bad. In our system, it really needs to be a system of laws and not just of people exerting power. Image Credit: Institute for Justice Hosted on Acast.

Why can't consumers pay their health care providers directly? How do we make basic primary care cheaper? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information ..read more
