it's all in Atlas Shrugged...

[washamericom]

Wait a minute, are angry incoherent lefties trying to make a case, based on a 50 year old novel, that socialists like Bernie Sanders are the new future while all business tycoons are evil people out to destroy the world? Ignorance is one thing but profound ignorance from angry incoherent border line psychotic lefties who were educated on video games and Hollywood trash seems to be the rule rather than the exception these days.

No.

Actually, its "angry incoherent lefties trying to make a case, based on a 50 year old novel" ......

that we should run our country on rather simplistic ideas that have no basis on reality.

Its just stunning that the Speaker of the House FORCES his employees to read that idiotic novel.

good fucking god - You fools need to grow up, get a clue.

i'm not sure why you would disparage the age of a literary work.

we just barely survived eight years of running our country on rather simplistic ideas that have no basis on reality.

or experience. obama brought nothing to the table but a sunny disposition, and he had no experience at anything.

solyndra and benghazi might be good examples.

It's her position.
I presume you haven't read the novel or watched the movie.

That's not her position. Like all Rand's detractors, you're slandering her.

Nope; you're very Conservative so her writing soothes your emotional state.
I get it.
But she was a selfish POS who created monsters like Cheney.

That's a stretch. I don't think Cheney ever read Rand.

I have no problem with people looking out for their own self interest. It's as natural as breathing.

And we supposedly have representatives to control such behavior for the "common welfare".

take a swing at this trotsky.

"I pledge by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine", said John Galt ..

that's an excellent case against enlisting in the military.

Democracy is simply war by other means. The idea that sleazy politicians are supposed to function like our parents is ludicrous.

"Simplistic" a leftwing euphemism meaning "obviously correct." No one has ever managed to explain why acting in your own rational self interest is wrong. No one.

Ayn Rand was s selfish bitch who couldn't get over herself.
She was Alan Greenspan's inspiration for allowing the Housing Bubble to almost destroy the planet's economy.

Atlas Thugged

She had a criminal mind and a desperate need to glorify Greedhead looters. She appeals to pathetic nobodies who want justification to make as much money as they can, as quickly as they can, any way they can, walking tall by walking all over people.

Her favorite slur is "moocher," yet she has no problem glorifying HeirHead parasites. At least she told the truth by making the main Socialists in her book rich kids. But she felt they were driven by guilt instead of by a drive for extending their unearned hereditary power by misleading the common people. In an atheist's superstition anointing them as God's favorites, her goal was to appeal to the spoiled brats to not feel guilty about anything and assert themselves as inheriting superior genes, so that whatever their greediest materialistic urges told them to do must be what they, and only they, deserve to do.

how about the fountainhead ?

Cowed by the Loud

Roark may be a legitimate hero, but in reality most of Rand's followers are more puff than substance. I get the same impression from Nietzsche. He urges us to assert ourselves, but most of those who do that are bullies or other pushy people who are conceited with no reason to be proud of themselves, such as HeirHeads with their unjustified "Born to Rule" attitude.

You obviously don't have a clue as to what Rand is all about. You never read Atlas Shrugged.

thank's for reminding me.

Rep. Charles Rangel wants Americans to "feel the burden" the U.S military goes through by reinstating a military draft and imposing a war tax.

The Democrat congressman and U.S. Army veteran introduced legislation this week to require all males and females aged 18 to 25 to register for the Select Service System.

His Draft Act also calls for a reinstatement of a draft lottery whenever an authorization for use of military force (AUMF) or declaration of war is in effect.

"Armed conflict is unpredictable, chaotic, and costly. When I served, the entire nation shared the sacrifices through the draft and increased taxes. But today, only a fraction of America shoulders the burden. If war is truly necessary, we must all come together to support and defend our nation," Rangel said Thursday in a statement. "As a Korean War veteran, I know the toll war takes."

It's not a bad idea, especially the part about paying for our wars as they happen.

because war is so predictable, like buying a car.

liberals hate this philosophy, one reason i like it so much.

it's a story, a work of fiction, and the liberals want it burned, and it's author to burn with it in perpetuity. so maybe there's a clue.

"Bad Cop, Good Cop" Is Not Some Impossible Conspiracy Theory

Anyone who sees through our scripted political puppet show would quickly realize that you're being manipulated by agents of the Right Wing pretending to be disgusting Left Wingers so you'll foolishly defend anything they attack. That's not the way to think critically.

A clue in Ayn Rand's own mumbo-jumbo is that an HeirHead like James Taggart is the most prominent Socialist. That fake ideology has always been a way for bossy conceited parasites to extend their unearned power. That is especially true in a republic; birth privileges wouldn't exist in a democracy. And no matter how competent Dagny is, she wouldn't have reached her potential if she hadn't been a Fortunate Daughter.

In actual Capitalism, Hank Rearden, a metallurgist, would have become
a meek geek Cash Cow for Corporate Cowboys. And why not, if the investor is deified and the inventor is demeaned as an impersonal creation and instrument of the Investor? Aren't we brainwashed into believing that Steve Jobs should be given sole credit for all of Apple's products? If scientists weren't such sissyboy nerds, they would go on strike against both Capitalism and Socialism, the twin products of HeirHead parasites and the only things they have ever invented.

Paper Moon

Thinking makes Libretardian fanatics' heads hurt. Ayn Rand once wrote a book review of a work she admitted she hadn't even read. Your cult feels it is so above those who haven't been properly indoctrinated that it can live in a bubble and float up to the stratosphere.

Master and Man

Of course, Lizardtarians want us to be cannon fodder who are PROUD TO DIE TAKING A RICH KID'S PLACE. And once again you push the fallacy that if a Liberal like Rangel says it, that is proof enough that the opposite is true.

 

[g5000]

i just watched this well made three part movie.

Too much trouble for you to read a book, eh?

Your grammar and spelling indicate you are barely literate, and that your artistic tastes are numb.

Well made? BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

Atlas Shrugged is one of the most boring books ever written. It could have been abridged to 50 pages, and not lost a whit of its message.

 

[g5000]

The best review of Atlas Shrugged ever: Big Sister Is Watching You, by Whittaker Chambers, National Review

Written in 1957.

Yes, by THAT Whitaker Chambers.

95% of the pseudocons reading this right now are asking, "Who the hell is Whitaker Chambers?"

 

[g5000]

Ayn Rand was a soulless atheist who fled the extremes of communist Russia and created the extremes of Objectivism.

Anyone calling themselves a Christian conservative who claims to love Atlas Shrugged is a parroting idiot who knows nothing about Rand.
