Join Atlas Society Senior Scholars Stephen Hicks and Richard Salsman Wednesday, July 23 @ 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET for a webinar exploring the intersection of “Public Choice” economics and Objectivism. Listen as the duo discuss how Public Choice theory challenges the idea of selfless government actors, and how Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged vividly dramatizes the consequences of political actors being driven by self-interest rather than the public good. Join the conversation and ask your questions LIVE on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, YouTube, and LinkedIn.
