In the 1960s, after some prodding from Ralph Nader, government regulators began a major push for safer cars. Which made University of Chicago economist Sam Peltzman wonder just how much safer these innovations made us. Specifically, he wondered about what economists call “moral hazard” — our tendency to take more risks when we’re insulated from the costs of that risk-taking.
"The ‘Moral Hazard’ of Naloxone in the Opioid Crisis" is from the March 08, 2018 Opinion section of The Washington Post. It was written by Megan McArdle and narrated by Sam Scholl.

Storia
Even if it weren't for Carlton Franklin, Lena Triano probably wouldn't be alive today; she was born around 1920. But if it weren't for Franklin, Triano probably would have lived much longer than her 57 years. In 1976, Triano, a legal secretary, was found dead in her New Jersey home. She had been tied up, raped, strangled and stabbed multiple times by an unknown assailant.
"What Is Punishment For?" is from the September 18, 2018 Opinion section of The Washington Post. It was written by Megan McArdle and narrated by Sam Scholl.

Storia
After The Post broke Christine Blasey Ford's story of sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh, I told skeptical friends to withhold judgment, because there was a good chance some outlet was already vetting a second accusation. Even then, I knew the first line of the column I would write if that happened:
"It's now clear that Brett Kavanaugh's nomination cannot go forward."#MeToo Depends on the Credibility of the Journalists Who Report on It" is from the September 25, 2018 Opinion section of The Washington Post. It was written by Megan McArdle and narrated by Sam Scholl.

Storia
Short sellers have a way of rattling even the most confident business leaders. A classic of the genre is Overstock chief executive Patrick Byrne, whose crazed diatribes against investors betting on a stock-price drop include a public conference call during which he ranted about a shadowy “Sith Lord” out to destroy Overstock and his railing on a site called Deep Capture against unfair financial-media coverage. Overstock also sued his purported enemies.
