This is The Indicator from Planet Money.
I'm Waylon Wong, here with friend of the show and host of the public radio podcast Outside In, Nate Hedgie.
Hey, Nate.
Hey, Waylon.
It's great to be back.
What do you got today?
First, I've got a question for you.
If the government doesn't want more of something, what does it normally do?
Pass a law against it, like a ban or a moratorium?
Yeah, exactly.
Remember Biden putting a moratorium on offshore oil and gas drilling?
Or when former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg banned big sodas.
Remember that?
Oh, yeah.
I wasn't living there at the time, but it was national news.
Did it end up sticking?
No, it did not.
I looked it up recently.
Did not stick.
