This chapter explores how excessive regulation can erode public trust in government and legal systems, referencing historical thinkers like Madison and Tocqueville. Through anecdotes about monks in Louisiana facing legal hurdles in the casket industry, it highlights the challenges of regulatory capture and its societal impacts.
In this episode of the Sunday Special, Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch joins us to discuss his latest book, "Over Ruled: The Human Toll of Too Much Law." With his signature judicial clarity, Justice Gorsuch explores the effects of our government’s expanding federal criminal code and the real-world consequences when seemingly innocuous activities entangle citizens with federal law. Justice Gorsuch shares the stories of Americans whose livelihoods have been negatively impacted by overregulation, and why he remains an “incorrigible optimist” about the future of our nation. This conversation is essential listening from one of our country’s sharpest legal minds!
