In this episode of New Ideal Live, Elan Journo and Ben Bayer discuss the Republican Party’s brazen attacks on free markets.

Among the topics covered:

• Why conservatives once appeared to be defenders of economic freedom;
• How conservatives betrayed economic freedom in the twentieth century;
• Why it’s important to criticize Republicans as well as Democrats;
• Unjust government vaccine mandates vs. vaccines as conditions of voluntary employment;
• Why Republican state bans on business vaccine requirements and passports violate freedom of association;
• How the Florida social media “censorship” ban violates economic and intellectual freedom;
• How the Texas social media “censorship” ban violates economic and intellectual freedom;
• How we can tell there is a broader Republican push against economic freedom;
• Why government pressure on private companies is not a justification for regulating the companies;
• Why ARI speaks up in defense of the freedom of social media companies.

Mentioned in the discussion are Ayn Rand’s essay “Conservatism: An Obituary,” Elan Journo’s essay “What Was Ayn Rand’s View of ‘Conservatism’?,” Ben Bayer’s essay “Ominous Threats to the Marketplace of Ideas” and his article  “Facebook: Censor or Victim?.” Also mentioned is an episode of New Ideal Live titled “Vaccine False Alternatives: Bribes vs. Mandates.”
