The government regulates the air Americans breathe and the food they eat to protect its citizens from danger. The 47th episode of a 50-part series on the United States government and politics introduces the concept of government involvement in everything from trade to food to travel. Scholars analyze the rules and regulations in place to serve the greater good and participate in an active discussion on how much government is enough—or too much.
