Who We Are

The Defenders of Capitalism Project™ is a for-profit organization committed to educating producers, leaders and achievers about capitalism and why we need to defend and champion the only moral socio-economic system in history.

What Your Peers are Saying

“I was startled how much the storyline of Atlas Shrugged mirrored certain realities I saw our country facing. Government force, the diminishment of reason, and the rejection of personal ingenuity, effort, and property only to name a few. Defenders of Capitalism has given me the framework to challenge such assaults. Whether in discussions with my family, friends, neighbors, fellow congregants, school board members, law enforcement, local business owners and even my medical providers, I openly share my learnings from Defenders of Capitalism and its application to current events. People are looking for language to express their confusion and frustrations. Without the foundation I gained through the Defenders of Capitalism coursework, I too may have been struggling for words. Instead, I am empowering fellow citizens to express why our country, and the world, must fight to uphold the means of production, the free exchange of value, and the rights of private ownership.”
