Ayn Rand Study Group Presents…
Capitalism: The Only Moral Social System
By Craig Biddle
Capitalism is widely recognized as the practical social system because, 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.
Mr. Biddle will demonstrate 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.
Admission: Students with ID – Free Non-Students - $5

Craig Biddle is the editor of The Objective Standard and the author of "Loving Life: The Morality of Self-Interest and the Facts that Support It". He is currently writing a book on the principles of rational thinking and the fallacies that are violations of those principles. In addition to writing, he lectures and teaches workshops on ethical and epistemological issues from an Objectivist perspective.
