Is the market economy rooted in greed and self-interest? Jeffrey Tucker argues that these are not the core. Many degrees of love, as traditionally understood, is at the core of what it means to exchange, invent, speculate, and produce. An economy based on love of others cannot neglect the institutions of ownership, exchange, volition, and creation. The failure to see this point is a conspicuous feature of both market advocates and skeptics.

Jeffrey Tucker is one of today’s most sought-after commentators on economics, technology, and human liberty. His perspective is thoroughly liberty-minded but with an optimistic outlook on the future. An ongoing theme in his speaking and writing is how enterprise, technology, and human iniquity are changing the world without recourse to politics.

He has been a two-time featured guest on John Stossel’s show, interviewed on Glenn Beck’s television show, appeared frequently on Huffington Post Live and Russia today, and is in constant demand as a headline speaker at libertarian, technology, and monetary conferences around the world.

He is the founder and Chief Liberty Officer of Liberty.me, a distinguished fellow of the Foundation for Economic Education where he consults on technology and editorial matters, a research fellow of the Acton Institute, and the editor of Laissez Faire Books. He has authored five books and 150 introductions to books.
