How US government policy caused our baby formula shortage

Government Creates the Baby Formula Shortage
Politicians blame “corporate greed” for the formula shortage. But it’s their own destructive policies that are to blame.
Why is there a formula shortage? It’s not Covid shipping delays. Other supermarket shelves are filled. “It’s clearly government policy that’s causing the biggest problems,” says trade specialist Scott Lincicome from the Cato Institute.
You would never know it if you listened to the media. They focus on the company that voluntarily recalled some formula, Abbott Nutrition. The real reasons for the shortage are actually worse than you think. “We have a tariff and regulatory wall around the country,” says Lincicome. So babies and parents suffer. I explain in this video.
John Stossel created Stossel TV to explain liberty and free markets to young people. Prior to Stossel TV he hosted a show on Fox Business and co-anchored ABC’s primetime newsmagazine show, 20/20.
Stossel’s economic programs have been adapted into teaching kits by a non-profit organization, “Stossel in the Classroom.” High school teachers in American public schools now use the videos to help educate their students on economics and economic freedom. They are seen by more than 12 million students every year.
Stossel has received 19 Emmy Awards and has been honored five times for excellence in consumer reporting by the National Press Club. Other honors include the George Polk Award for Outstanding Local Reporting and the George Foster Peabody Award.

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.

If you find someone squatting in your house, it turns out that there’s often very little you can do to get them out. That’s why Flash Shelton started SquatterHunters.com, to help homeowners remove unwanted intruders.
Flash Shelton couldn’t believe it when he found there was a stranger living in his mother’s old house. He called the police, but they wouldn’t help him. Turns out, laws meant to protect tenants, also protect squatters.
