Bjorn Lomborg: Climate Change, Poverty, and How Governments WASTE Your Money
From StosselTV
Environmentalist Bjorn Lomborg says we waste money in the fight against climate change.
Governments spends trillions to fight climate change, but Lomborg says many of these policies are “not an efficient way of spending.” For saying this, Lomborg has been called “the devil.” The Danish government even targeted him for his views on climate change.
“I’m not trying to do something that’s immoral or anything,” he tells me. “I’m simply trying to make sure that we get it right.” Lomborg says there are better things society should spend money on. He says we should spend on the “best things first,” things like maternal and newborn health and improving education, rather than squandering billions on pointless gestures toward stopping climate changes.

Why Biden’s Just Wrong: NO ONE “Knows How to Make Government Work.”
From StosselTV
During his last campaign, Biden claimed he “knows how to make government work.” But he doesn’t! No one does.
Biden can’t keep track of what he spends, inflation is worse, and our national debt is the highest it’s ever been.
Economist Ed Stringham says, “It’s a hubris that the government knows best.”
While government fails to work, the private sector gets things done.
Our new video shows ways markets outperform even the best-meaning politicians.

Biden’s Kill Switch: The Growing Threat of Government Control of Your Car
From StosselTV
The government may soon be able to shut down your car. Biden’s $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill includes a kill switch for new cars.
In an effort to reduce drunk driving, government wants devices in cars that will monitor and limit impaired driving. But there’s a big problem: these devices give government control over your car.
Automotive engineer and former vintage race car driver Lauren Fix points out the dangers in my video.
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.
