David D. Friedman, Sunetra Gupta and Indira Jaising debate our approach to risk & safety.
Watch the full debate at https://iai.tv/video/dicing-with-death?utm_source=YouTube&utm_medium=description
We want to be safe, and in search of safety the countries of the world in the face of covid closed down much of the economy. Yet a Lancet study confirmed that global deaths from alcohol are 2.8 million deaths annually. Three times the current number of deaths from Covid and if we wanted to be safe and save lives all we have to do is stop drinking.
Is the reality that we pretend to want to be safe when someone else is responsible. But when left to our own devices and desires we frequently chose risk instead? Or do we want safety but just don't realise that routine activities are dangerous?
