THIS IS YOUR COUNTRY Ep. 20 | How the Government Worsened the Opioid Crisis (feat. Casey Mulligan)
This interview with Former White House CEA Chief Economist Casey Mulligan explores a number of problems created by poorly designed government policy, ranging from publicly-subsidized prescription opioids worsening narcotic addictions and death, to regulation that helps powerful special interests squeeze out competition.
The conversation touches on perverse incentives affecting American trade, energy, immigration, and welfare policy, leading to dysfunctional outcomes for the American people.
This is the second in a series of interviews that Paige will conduct with policy experts who break from the traditional Washington orthodoxy and who offer a variety of solutions that we can consider to revive our country's prosperity and promise.

About THIS IS YOUR COUNTRY:
Former White House political adviser Paige Willey delivers a relentless deep dive into the current American condition. Drawing on her experience in Washington, she studies the dysfunction facing our country and outlines the way forward to restore our nation’s promise.
Paige believes the great questions of our time will not be resolved with talking points and platitudes. THIS IS YOUR COUNTRY gets straight to the heart of the matter. Politics and strategy will be studied. The corrupt and craven ruling class will be skewered. Our degraded economy, society and culture will be scrutinized. Why? Because the American ethos has always been to believe a better way is possible—then to make it happen.
Americans deserve a champion. The promise of our nation is slipping away. It’s time to build the great American revival.
