570: Actor Mark Pellegrino Talks Objectivism, Capitalism, and His New Political Party




The Jason Stapleton Program show

Summary: What an incredible discussion. For anyone who doesn't know Mark is an incredibly successful actor in both TV and film who, instead of enjoying the spoils of his success has decided to take on the seemingly impossible task of starting his own political party. The American Capitalist Party follows the objectivist philosophy of Ayn Rand and differentiates itself from the current left/right political framework in it's strict adherence to core free market principles. Mark and I had a great talk about his ideas on role government and foreign policy as well as the difference between his party and the Libertarian Party. I think you're really going to enjoy this one. In the interview, he mentioned a book he could not remember. The book is called, "Nothing Less Than Victory by J. D. Lewis." I'll be adding it to my reading list. We've had a week of alternative views, and I hope you've found the conversation as interesting as I have. Jason
