The Objectivist Club at NYU invites you to attend a new lecture event:

 

You Are Not Your Brother’s Health Care Provider

a lecture by Dr. Yaron Brook

March 30, 2010

7PM (Doors Open at 6:30PM)

Kimmel Center at NYU - Rosenthal Pavilion

Admission FREE to Students

(Non-NYU Suggested Donation: $10)

 

Description: Despite overwhelming evidence that government intervention wrecks health care, government control over American medicine keeps growing. Why? Because, Dr. Brook argues, virtually everyone today believes that a person's need morally entitles him to have it fulfilled at others' expense. This morality of need is at the root of every government health care entitlement, from Medicaid to ObamaCare. In this provocative talk, Dr. Brook attacks the morality of need, and proposes a revolutionary alternative: the moral right of each individual to live for his own sake, taking responsibility for his own life and needs--including his health care needs--on a free market.

 

Bio: Yaron Brook is president and executive director of the Ayn Rand Institute and is a contributing editor to The Objective Standard. A former finance professor, he has published in academic as well as popular publications. He is frequently interviewed in the media and appears weekly on the new Fox Business Network to debate and discuss current economic and business news. His columns and opinion-editorials are published on forbes.com and in major newspapers. Dr. Brook lectures on Objectivism, business ethics and foreign policy at college campuses, community groups and corporations across America and throughout the world.
