Few businessmen know how to defend themselves and take pride in their role as capitalists who serve consumers. That makes them the inevitable losers in a debate that pits them as exploiters and plunders their noble work.

Brad DeVos is on a mission to change that, and he is leading the growth of Bastiat Society chapters around the globe. He is the organization’s managing director, and these circles have entrepreneur members who explore political economy and the case for free enterprise to better engage in the public debate and impact public policy.
