Join Atlas Society Senior Scholar and Professor of Political Economy at Duke Richard Salsman, Ph.D. for a Spaces discussion on recent changes to the GOP’s stance on abortion.

"In its 2024 platform, the Republican Party materially altered, for the better, its formal stance on abortion, away from the oxymoronic 'unborn child' language of 2016. This could be the start of something good and permanent. Thankfully the GOP has a 'pro-choice wing' headed by Nancy Mace (Rep-SC). Also, the ending of Roe v. Wade (1973) by SCOTUS in 2022, although problematic, at least allowed extended abortion rights to women in many states. In time, we could see a full, universal right." - Richard Salsman

Join Atlas Society Senior Fellow Robert Tracinski for a Spaces discussion covering the question, "Was Ayn Rand a Liberal Democrat?"

"Ayn Rand was not a "liberal Democrat" in the sense of being an advocate of the welfare state. But was she a defender of "liberal democracy"? And would she have been tempted by "free-market authoritarianism"?" - Robert Tracinski

Join Atlas Society Senior Scholar and Professor of Political Economy at Duke Richard Salsman, Ph.D. for a Spaces discussion on recent polls pointing to mounting hostility to profit and an exploration into the philosophical underpinnings of this trend.

"Polls show that most people distrust and despise profit, while economists insist that 'perfect competition' entails a 'zero profit condition.' Anti-profit bias arises from a distrust of egoism and a belief in the 'zero-sum' premise versus the trader principle." - Richard Salsman
