Ep 109 | America Has Abandoned Reason for Fear | Guest: Donald Boudreaux
Podcast: Kibbe on LibertyPublished On: Wed Feb 17 2021
Description: Matt Kibbe is joined by economist Donald Boudreaux to try to come to grips with the complete lack of rational risk assessment Americans have displayed with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic.
