Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to learn how politics really works!
As many of you might know, the Ron Paul Blimp was one of the most hotly debated grassroots project of Ron Paul’s 2008 presidential campaign. Well, the leader of the RP blimp project, Trevor Lyman, is back with a new dirigable project, the Peace Blimp.
How successful this venture will be is yet to be seen (unlike the original blimp, there are different possibly levels of the project in case not enough money is raised), but it may be a powerful crossover tool to help team up with the anti-war left.
YAL at OSU is teaming up with the OSU Objectivists Club to bring you a lecture on the morality of capitalism.
Capitalism is widely recognized as the practical social system because, wherever and to the extent that it is implemented, it leads to wealth and prosperity. But this same system is widely regarded as immoral because it enables people to act fully in their own self-interest—that is, to act on their own judgment and to keep, use, and dispose of the product of their own effort. This talk demonstrates why, far from making capitalism immoral, the fact that it enables everyone to act selfishly and own property is what makes it not only the most practical but also the only moral social system ever devised. A question-and-answer period will follow the talk.
Craig Biddle is author of Loving Life: The Morality of Self-Interest and the Facts that Support It and editor of The Objective Standard, a quarterly journal of culture and politics written from an Objectivist perspective.
Title: Capitalism: The Only Moral Social System
Where: Wexner Performance Space
When: Feb 24, 6-8pm
Who: Craig Biddle of the Ayn Rand Institute
