Capitalism and Atlas Shrugged (Part 1 of 12)

[Mike82ARP]

Ditto on the lousy sound recording.

[SuperAntiZionist]

Ayn Rand was a psychopath.

Plus Atlas Shrugged is not even a good book, insidiously boring and with the character of a standard table spoon. It didn't even make the ABC top 1001 books of all time, and for good reason!

Most people are devoted to it because it's the only book they've bothered to bloody well read in their sad lives.

@SuperAntiZionist Hmmmm.. I've read many books pre-Atlast Shrugged and found here to be one of the most intelligent minds I've every come across. She was a game changing Philosopher with a penetrating insight into how the work actually works; this means: the actual metaphysics, epistemology of this reality and life in it. Based on that she defined the best ethics and political system to follow for man's rational benefit. What is "psychopathic" about that?

[derek2010x]

@SuperAntiZionist Oh, and that crack about not making it into some list of the 1001 books of all time, I can say two things, 1) In other prestigious lists it is hailed as the most important book of all time (google it). 2) Time has already proven you wrong, and will continue to do so.

[KeithMcElwain]

Rand is right and it becomes more apparent everyday !

[widawtaneym]

I can't hear shit...except the clapping!

[pgm98387]

Your effort is appreciated.

Not easy to get sound without a boom mic.

Thanks

[pgm98387]

cover the mic during clapping....

headphones turned all the way up.....

[Sluttybags]

Still haven't fixed the audio :(

[carehappens]

yikes can't hear a darn thing :-(

[j1400]

Unintelligible audio.

It would be great if you could add subtitles and a brief view of the projected slides.

[graphattic]

Shit, yo ARI guys..... get yourself an honest objectivist sound technician....cause it is just like an Obama speech, small voice big clapping.

[kochav125]

audio is so bad that the clip is unwatchable. shame.

[natdavi]

Hey ya'll open your volume control on your computer & turn down everything but the Wave volume & you'll hear it better. Cheers!

[irmavep2]

Horrible audio. Yaron Brook is tough nough to lesten to under good conditions. The Institue should not have posted this inferior product as it reflects upon them.

[KajiCarson]

This looks like an extremely facinating lecture; I just wish the quality of the audio was better.

[SBRslacker00]

This audio is terrible. Does it improve at all? Sounds like the mic is at the back of the room.

[warpicachu]

please become a youtube partner. so you can post long clips without splitting them.

[IchorFigure]

Yes, please do.

I look forward to watching this series.
