This past Tuesday night I was brought to a campus near San Francisco to deliver a lecture entitled “Making Money is Moral”. The program was put on by the outstanding Young America’s Foundation who own and run President Reagan’s ranch near Santa Barbara where they put on fantastic programs for school and college young people. I got about a third through the speech before the protestors got themselves sufficiently organized to begin their disruption. You know how it can be a little scary when you sense you are in the presence of huge forces over which you have no control?

Well, this podcast is about the speech and what Susan Lapin and I experienced this past Tuesday night on a university campus in California.
