Objectivism is just mean-spiritedness put through the wash of ideology and idealism.

Yea moost kids are little an'rchists who aren't booksmart. But there are always a few kids who get roped into the blutches of objectivism until they realize that the market doesn't solve all problems. They wise up after the first college bill. Good to hear from you Gail! I see your sister nearly every day.

Sometimes its better to finish a book half-way through. Che is a troubling character for leftists. We want to support the idea of Revolution of and for the people, but we don't want to support a thug who actively gave away all of his ethos for a revolutionary ideal which was reduced to fighting the Yankees. Political discourse is much better as t-shirt. As a book, this was thorough and clear, exactly what I would want. But in terms of my personal mythology, I will always prefer "The Motorcycle Diaries." Romance is so much better than reality.

You have NO IDEA how many kids from RAHS (that are in financial positions to afford it) go through the Rand phase.

The last 6+ years are proof that there are down sides.
