Of course, Rand is hardly a believer. She is materialist, objectivist, atheist philosopher. So, we don’t agree on everything. She, however, does believe in free markets, individual freedom, virtues and the US Constitution. This interview is fun to watch in light of the current economic crisis—which she forecasts. The most hilarious part in Mike Wallace’s bumbling (but abjectly sincere) defense of the welfare state on Christian grounds. For those students and alumni who studied Rand at Veritas, seeing her in almost living color is a real treat (the interview is in three parts):  [http://perfectlyhuman.multiply.com/video/item/11](http://perfectlyhuman.multiply.com/video/item/11)   [http://perfectlyhuman.multiply.com/video/item/12](http://perfectlyhuman.multiply.com/video/item/12)   [http://perfectlyhuman.multiply.com/video/item/13](http://perfectlyhuman.multiply.com/video/item/13)  ###### About [Faculty & Staff](http://www-veritasacademy-com.sandbox.hs-sites.com/faculty) [Vision](https://info.veritasacademy.com/about/vision/) [Profile](https://info.veritasacademy.com/about/profile/) [History](https://info.veritasacademy.com/about/history/) [Distinctives](https://info.veritasacademy.com/about/distinctive-qualities/) [Employment](https://www.veritasacademy.com/employment) [Contact Us](https://info.veritasacademy.com/contact) ###### [Academics](https://info.veritasacademy.com/academics) [Preschool](https://info.veritasacademy.com/preschool) [Kindergarten](https://info.veritasacademy.com/kindergarten) [Grammar (1-6)](https://info.veritasacademy.com/academics/grammar/) [Logic (7-9)](https://info.veritasacademy.com/academics/logic/) [Rhetoric (10-12)](https://info.veritasacademy.com/academics/rhetoric/) [College Guidance](https://info.veritasacademy.com/academy-life/college-guidance/) [Faculty & Staff](https://info.veritasacademy.com/faculty) [Technology](https://info.veritasacademy.com/technology) ###### [Admissions](https://info.veritasacademy.com/admissions) [Welcome](https://info.veritasacademy.com/welcome) [Visit](https://info.veritasacademy.com/admissions/visit) [Application Process](https://info.veritasacademy.com/application) [Re-enrollment Process](https://info.veritasacademy.com/reenrollment-process) [Preschool Application](https://info.veritasacademy.com/preschool-application) [Tuition](https://info.veritasacademy.com/admissions/tuition/) [Financial Aid](https://info.veritasacademy.com/admissions/financial-aid/) [International Students](https://info.veritasacademy.com/international-students/) [Admission Resources](https://info.veritasacademy.com/admission-resources) ###### Arts [Choir](https://info.veritasacademy.com/choir) [Drama](http://www.veritasacademy.com/drama) [Fine Arts](https://info.veritasacademy.com/fine-arts) [Orchestra](https://info.veritasacademy.com/orchestra) ###### Athletics [Cooperative Sports](https://info.veritasacademy.com/cooperative-sports) [Winter Sports](https://info.veritasacademy.com/winter-sports) [Fall Sports](https://info.veritasacademy.com/fall-sports) [Booster Club](https://info.veritasacademy.com/booster-club)   ###### [Academy Life](https://info.veritasacademy.com/academy-life) [Clubs and Electives](https://info.veritasacademy.com/clubs-and-electives) [House Program](https://info.veritasacademy.com/house-program) [Student Leadership](https://info.veritasacademy.com/student-leadership) [Spiritual Life](https://info.veritasacademy.com/spiritual-life) [Field Trips](https://info.veritasacademy.com/field-trips) [Mission Trips](https://info.veritasacademy.com/mission-trips) [Traditions](https://info.veritasacademy.com/traditions) [Summer Program](http://www.veritasacademy.com/summer-camp) [After School Program](https://info.veritasacademy.com/after-school-program) [![veritas_crestlogotype_stacked_fullcolor_digital](https://info.veritasacademy.com/hubfs/Veritas%20Academy%20Updated%20Logos%202021/veritas_crestlogotype_stacked_fullcolor_digital.png "veritas_crestlogotype_stacked_fullcolor_digital")](http://www.veritasacademy.com/) 26 Hillcrest Avenue Leola, PA 17540 (717)-556-0690 ![accredited_ACCS_blue](https://info.veritasacademy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/accredited_ACCS_blue.png?width=400&height=300&name=accredited_ACCS_blue.png "accredited_ACCS_blue") ![Best-school-badges-2021](https://info.veritasacademy.com/hubfs/Best-school-badges-2021.jpg "Best-school-badges-2021") Subscribe to the Blog © Veritas Academy 2023 ![](https://www.facebook.com/tr?id=296346424471753&ev=PageView&noscript=1) ```json { "@context" : "http://schema.org", "@type" : "LocalBusiness", "address" : { "@type" : "PostalAddress", "addressCountry" : "United States", "addressLocality" : "Leola", "addressRegion" : "PA", "postalCode" : "17540", "streetAddress" : "26 Hillcrest Avenue" }, "email" : "office@veritasacademy.com", "name" : "Veritas Adacemy", "telephone" : "(717)-556-0690" } ```
