Personally, though, I’m very disappointed to see Brad Pitt among their company. In his interviews he has always struck me as a kind of sectarian Buddhist–which I think is an excellent stance. I hope the magazine is reaching.

As an exercise in logicical argumentation, your points are useless to debate due to an a priori assumption that no market is ever free enough of “distortions” for your individualist utopia to emerge. No blood can possibly be on your hands, because, like other cultists, you reject any negotiation with that which fails to conform with your borrowed ideology. This is the realm of the fantasist, for whom I have no use beyond entertainment.

Now take a deep breath and read it again — you’re a seemingly bright enough lot to comprehend the mirror I hold before you.

You havent argued nor won a single point mate…like a pragmatic politician you’ve assumed you’re in safe water by rehashing tired disproven old crap from Rands enemies who have no valid refutation of her ideas other than slamming her on subjective grounds which cannot be proven nor disproven.

The same counts for your reliance on the collective for moral ammo that proclaims it as being OK and “progressive” to empower other “progressive” politicians to steal from the producers and redistribute the loot on behalf of the say so of the majority, i.e. looters (in exchange for your votes of course)

The reason Rand has so many enemies is that her ideas are making the producers aware of how they are being scammed, and that her ideas have some of them already going on strike against this notion of becoming Milch Cows to the majority..for no reason other than that they are the majority.

Ayn Rand fought for the smallest minority on earth..the individual. This battle should have been won with the collapse of socialism/communism wherever it was implemented, but unfortunately the envy of the looters in regard to those who are more industrious in a free economy were allowed to respawn and mobilise from behind the culturally inherited lie of “the greater public good” (as if the good of some take moral precedence over the good of others)

The revolution to dispose of mob induced slavery has begun, and even though it will take some time, the individual will win. (after all there are so many of you)

Until then as I said…enjoy the ride..it’s almost over.

That reminds me: C. Jeffery Small’s statement “like the heroes of Rand’s novels, I refuse to sanction you any right to any part of my life,” is actually awesome. Does he wear a cape?

“Like the heroes of the Dragonlance saga, I use my wizard skills to protect all the Noble races of Krynn from the Dragonarmies of Ansalon!”

That cracked me up to no end, C. Jeffery Small. I know, I know – hit me with a 2,000-word essay on what you meant by “the rule of law”, C. Jeffery Small. [Yaawwn.] While you’re at it, get yourself a new name to mentally masturbate by, because C. Jeffery Small ain’t makin’ you’re intellectual johnson any bigger.
