Covid-19: Regulatory Obstacles to U.S. Recovery
Manage episode 261744000 series 62998
James R. Copland joins Brian Anderson to discuss how America's uniquely cumbersome regulatory system impeded the national response to the Covid-19 crisis and how costly litigation could damage the economy even further.
The FDA and CDC's administrative failings in the early days of the crisis proved costly.

And a wave of coronavirus-related lawsuits poses a serious threat to future business viability.
