Video: Jeffrey Tucker Explains Why Capitalism Is About Love
Jul 31, 2026 9:14 AM

The 2015 Acton Lecture Series got off to a rousing start last week with the arrival of Jeffrey Tucker, Chief Liberty Officer of Liberty.me, to deliver the first lecture of this year’s series, entitled “Capitalism Is About Love.” If you go by the conventional wisdom, that seems to be a counterintuitive statement.Jeffrey Tucker explains how the two are actually bound up together.

You can watch the lecture via the video player below, and if you haven’t had a chance to hear the Radio Free Acton interview with Tucker, I’ve included it after the jump.

  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on 1 Peter 5:5-9   (Read 1 Peter 5:5-9)   Humility preserves peace and order in all Christian churches and societies; pride disturbs them.

  Romans 2:5-6 In-Context   3 So when you, a mere human being, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God's judgment?   4 Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?   5 But because of...
Verse of the Day
  James 4:1-3 In-Context   1 What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don't they come from your desires that battle within you?   2 You desire but do not have, so you kill.

Verse of the Day
  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on Acts 20:17-27   (Read Acts 20:17-27)   The elders knew that Paul was no designing, self-seeking man. Those who would in any office serve the Lord acceptably, and profitably to others, must do it with humility. He was a plain preacher, one that spoke his message so as to be understood. He was a powerful preacher;...

  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on Proverbs 5:15-23   (Read Proverbs 5:15-23)   Lawful marriage is a means God has appointed to keep from these destructive vices. But we are not properly united, except as we attend to God's word, seeking his direction and blessing, and acting with affection. Ever remember, that though secret sins may escape the eyes of our fellow-creatures,...
Verse of the Day
  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on James 1:1-11   (Read James 1:1-11)   Christianity teaches men to be joyful under troubles: such exercises are sent from God's love; and trials in the way of duty will brighten our graces now, and our crown at last. Let us take care, in times of trial, that patience, and not passion, is set to work...
Verse of the Day
  Romans 5:6-8 In-Context   4 perseverance, character; and character, hope.   5 And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.   6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.   7 Very rarely will...
