Daniel Di Martino: Social Security and Medicare COVID-19 Video Series

In lieu of in-person events during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Institute for the Study of Free Enterprise released a series of videos describing various issues related to markets and government intervention during the pandemic. 

This video, the sixth in the series, features Daniel Di Martino discussing Social Security and Medicare. Di Martino explains how the economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic worsens the already grim financial outlook of the Social Security and Medicare programs.
