Attn, DC Reasonoids: Discuss Corporate Social Responsibility, Eat & Drink for Free Tonight Thursday
Join AFF at our next Roundtable Thursday, May 18, "What's your Bottom Line: A Debate on Corporate Social Responsibility." Is corporate social responsibility--or CSR for short--a new way of thinking about "doing well by doing good"? Or is CSR simply privatizing socialism by demanding corporations do something more what they should be doing: maximizing profits for investors?
Join moderator Sean Higgins, Investors Business Daily, and panelists Steve Milloy, Free Enterprise Action Fund, Katherine Mangu-Ward, New York Times, Scott Walsh, Environmental Defense, and Ivan Osorio, Competitive Enterprise Institute, as they debate whether there's a "business case" to be made for corporations pursuing social good.
The event will take place at the Fund for American Studies, 1706 New Hampshire Avenue, NW, near Dupont Circle. Drinks at 6:30; Roundtable begins at 7:00. Roundtables are free for members, $5 for non-members. So join today! Please RSVP to Anna Pope at pope@americasfuture.org.

They don't have all the good parties. Just most of them.

I hope Mr. Milloy has some nice new note cards from the cigarette companies to read from.
Yup, it's THAT Steven Milloy.

Would love to be there, but will be too busy trying to generate income. I'm overdue on a freelance assignment. Ah, the burdens of being a greedy capitalist! But please vote my proxy against any such nonsense as "corporate social responsibility," a phrase that reeks of moral smugness.
