Coronavirus: A crisis tailor made for increased government power
Manage episode 279136154 series 2826149
The Coronavirus disease 2019, or COVID-19 outbreak has consumed everything lately--from media to government.

Joining me is Jeff Deist. Jeff is the president of the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama.
