On May 6, 2016, David Rubin on Ora.TV’s The Rubin Report interviewed ARI’s executive director, Yaron Brook. In this extensive interview Dr. Brook discusses topics such as the life, works and philosophy of Ayn Rand, the failure of our public education system, the meaning of rational selfishness, the value of free trade and labor-saving machines and the cause of cronyism and government controls.
In this episode of The Yaron Brook Show, originally airing on April 19, 2016, guest host Steve Simpson discusses how the government’s investigation of Exxon Mobile, et al., is a threat to free speech, the connection between freedom of speech and freedom of thought, how to reconcile fraud with free speech, why freedom demands conceptual clarity and what you can do to defend freedom of speech.
In this talk, ARI’s executive director Yaron Brook argues that the campaign against economic inequality amounts to a campaign against reality, freedom and economic progress lead to economic inequality and inequality critics are not motivated by a concern for “the poor,” but by a resentment of the productive and successful.
In this talk, ARI fellow and Equal Is Unfair co-author Don Watkins explains how to understand and win the inequality debate — and how to restore America as the land of opportunity and revive the American Dream as an ideal.
In this debate with welfare researcher Matthew Bruenig, ARI’s Don Watkins elaborates on the connection between the right to property and freedom, the productive role of capitalists, why economic inequality does not lead to political instability and how capitalism has virtually eradicated extreme absolute poverty.
In this episode of The Yaron Brook Show, originally aired on April 15, 2016, guest host Don Watkins discusses the truth about the American tax burden, the underlying un-American collectivism of the “fair share” rhetoric and the injustice of progressive taxation.
