The Soho Forum \”features topics of special interest to libertarians, and the series aims to enhance social and professional ties within the NYC libertarian community.\” For the rest of us, lwhat\’s interesting is that they host regular and lively debates, a number of them on topics related to economics, and then post video and podcasts. Here are some of the recent tussles that caught my eye–more are available at the site. I\’ve written down the debate resolution, the names of the participants, and the date, with a link to the video:
“All government support of higher education should be abolished.\”
May 14, 2018
“Fifteen million able-bodied adults on government welfare would have a better chance at economic betterment if they were taken off welfare.\”
Tarren Bragdon vs. Neera Tanden
Don Boudreaux vs. Rick Manning
Paul Starr vs. David Goldhill

[My only complaint is that it would be nice if the Soho Forum would also post transcripts, for those of us who prefer to read rather than watch.]
