Dear John, 

What does it mean to be a “common-good capitalist”?

It’s one of the most intensely debated topics in conservative circles today.

How do we find the balance between free markets and the public interest, open trade and national security, and private businesses and the common good?

Few public leaders have spent as much time thinking about how to strike this balance as Senator Marco Rubio.

In our latest podcast episode, ISI president Johnny Burtka interviews Senator Rubio about his definition of common-good capitalism and what it means for our relationship with the free market, big corporations, and an increasingly dangerous China.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why the free market is still the best tool for improving people’s lives up to a point
   
• How big government in China and America shifted our economy from a pro-worker economy to a pro-shareholder one
   
• Why multinational corporations don’t care what happens to America, even if they’re based here
   
• What China is doing to undermine America at this very moment
   
• How the COVID-19 pandemic proved federalism works
   
• Senator Rubio’s definition of an economy that works for American families
   
• . . . and more!

Senator Rubio offers the perfect blend of philosophy and pragmatism in this must-hear conversation. Give it a listen.

We’ll have a new episode up Wednesday, September 1. So subscribe to Conservative Conversations with ISI now.
