Episode 8: Petty coronavirus authoritarians can’t cancel your Thanksgiving
Free to Offend Episode 8
With Thanksgiving upon us, governors around the country are doubling down on their authoritarian attempts to regulate away the risks associated with coronavirus by cracking down on the professional and social activities of citizens.
With Governor Sisolak enforcing stricter mandates this week, Nevada Policy’s Michael Schaus argues that widespread compliance is highly unlikely—and that Nevadans should seriously consider just how much weight they want to lend to the governor’s one-man-rule approach to the pandemic.
As Schaus explains, “The novel coronavirus has no regard for the arbitrary limits and restrictions politicians place on our freedoms. Maybe we should have less regard for such limits as well.”
