The fight to save you from yourself

About this episode

Sabine and Jay discuss government regulations aimed at protecting individuals from their own choices regarding nicotine pouches, alcohol taxes, and warning labels.

If there's one thing governments and regulators want to do, it's save you from yourself because you just don't know better. In this episode, Sabine and Jay take issue with that idea when it comes to nicotine pouches, automated taxes on your booze, and of course, warning labels on everything.  Support us: https://consumerchoicecenter.org/donate See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
