Ep 152 | Is There Any Limit to Government Power? | Guest: Robert Alt

Kibbe on Liberty - A podcast by Blaze Podcast Network - Wednesdays

Matt Kibbe is joined by Robert Alt, president and CEO of the Buckeye Institute, to discuss whether there are any effective legal mechanisms to limit government power when both federal and state officials are dedicated to expanding it as much as possible under the rubric of “emergency measures.” Alt points to historical examples of temporary programs that became permanent, how the courts can stop certain unconstitutional programs, and the terrible legal precedents that led us to where we are today.
