MICHAEL MEDVED
Bestselling author and radio show host MICHAEL MEDVED will speak about and sign his new book, The 5 Big Lies About American Business: Combating Smears Against the Free Market Economy.


In the THE 5 BIG LIES ABOUT AMERICAN BUSINESS, popular radio host Michael Medved present a timely and forceful defense of American’s economic system that tackles the smears and deceptions that underlie the public’s bitter, resentful attitude toward capitalism. He asserts that our unique corporate system has always benefited and will continue to energize our economy and this great country. Medved skewers the most prevalent anti-business ideas, including:
* The pursuit of profit damages the public interest and undermines humane values
* Globalization threatens the standard of living of all Americans and leads to poverty and oppression in less-developed nations
* Corporate bosses shamelessly exploit the labor of others, leading pampered, undemanding lives that seldom justify their lavish rewards
* Small business is more ethical and responsible than big business
* Government respects the interests of citizens more reliably than for-profit corporations
