Come join Don Watkins and Yaron Brook as they celebrate the launch of their new book, Equal Is Unfair: America’s Misguided Fight Against Income Inequality.
This Saturday, March 26, Yaron Brook will discuss President Obama’s trip to Cuba, the Brussels terror attack and the release of Equal Is Unfair: America’s Misguided Fight Against Income Inequality.

Today many believe that Senator Bernie Sanders’ vision of “democratic socialism” works. As proof, they cite the success and prosperity of countries like Sweden.
In Equal Is Unfair: America’s Misguided Fight Against Income Inequality, Yaron Brook and I argue that the campaign to fight economic inequality is unjust. One response I’ve heard from people who have only seen the title of the book (and one critical reviewer) is that we’re attacking a straw man. No one advocates full economic equality, they say.
Yaron Brook will be in the Chicago area March 21 to March 23 to discuss his much anticipated new book, Equal Is Unfair: America’s Misguided Fight Against Income Inequality. The book, co-authored by Don Watkins, is the first major narrative to challenge Bernie, Hillary and the rest of the inequality alarmists.

Don Watkins and Yaron Brook’s new book Equal Is Unfair: America’s Misguided Fight Against Income Inequality will be available on March 29. But you can read the book’s first chapter, “Who Cares About Inequality?” right now.
On February 26, 2016, Yaron Brook participated in a Federalist Society panel on the relationship between capitalism and inequality. The panel was the first in the Federalist Society’s 2016 National Student Symposium, which was titled “Poverty, Inequality, and the Law.”
