Synopsis

The world is moving away from Capitalism, not from lack of understanding of economics, but because the conventional morality regards it as evil. Yaron debunks that by showing that selfishness is not lying, stealing, cheating, etc., but using your reason to figure out the best life for yourself and interacting with others in mutually beneficial win-win relationships.Recorded on February 22, 2023 at the University of Brno in Komenského nám. 2, 602 00 Brno-střed, Czechia.00:00 Intro 00:49 Yaron's intro04:25 Free markets work10:24 Why is world moving away from free markets?14:53 Markets are about self interest22:05 Capitalism goes against the conventional morality28:15 Bill Gates vs Mother Teresa33:33 We cannot win as long as self interest is considered immoral34:30 Ayn Rand's contribution to freedom movement37:04 Conventional vs Rand's view of self interest, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/selfishness.html39:34 Reason, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/reason.html45:15 Being crook is horrible48:50 Mora
