  • How does the free market respond to a crisis?
  • Why aren’t there sufficient tests for COVID-19?
  • Are there some countries that are handling the pandemic better than the United States?
  • Why does tribalism often take precedence over community?
  • Is government incompetence and overregulation just as harmful to our health as the virus itself?
  • Are some government regulations appropriate and helpful?
  • How can we effectively use incentives instead of regulations?
  • How effective are masks and respirators against the virus?
