Carolina Journal by Video - LXXIX: Where have all the capitalists gone? | Eastern NC Now

    Publisher's Note: This post appears here courtesy of the Carolina Journal. The author of this post is Mitch Kokai.

    The Carolina Journal makes a wide sweeping evaluation of the news that most effects us here in North Carolina, and is distilled, here on BCN, for your clear understanding by the electronic means of video broadcast.

   

    Anyone who lived through the '80s and '90s remembers when capitalism seemed victorious over communism. But these days that fact might seem in doubt.

    Richard Salsman of Duke University joins Carolina Journal to discuss his new book "Where Have All the Capitalists Gone?" It's published by the American Institute for Economic Research. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1630692085

    Salsman believes that if you want to defend capitalism to the society of today, you can't just use economics. Socialists and other enemies of capitalism have been attacking it on moral grounds as well. The enemies of capitalism have been in the education system for decades and capitalists have largely abandoned academia.
