Light The Way...

As a student of Objectivism I believe that there is a necessity for a fundamental philosophical shift in order for people to begin to live in the sort of world we O’ists know is possible.

Altruism must be cast off, it is the man killer, religion needs to be set aside, no more pretending, and socialism must be smashed entirely for it destroys the very soul of man... his will to achieve, to produce, to create.

All of this must happen before any country known today could ever hope to embrace laissez faire capitalism and the moral and ethical ideals contained within Objectivist philosophy.

But…

I am a firm believer in the power of example. It is one of the most profound and simple forms of leadership. It creates an instant connection between the doers and the watchers. It is intuitive, demonstrative and educational, and it should not be ignored.

Objectivism needs an example, a concrete upon which to build. No country in the history of man ever sprang forth fully formed. Certainly a properly governed laissez faire capitalist one won’t.

In this age and time where the forces of collectivism are blaming an unfree market for the failings of a free market that never existed, when the altruists call for more sacrifice and the religions call for more concessions to support their supposed morality, those of us who believe in moral selfishness, in individuality, in egoism, capitalism and freedom need to have somewhere to point and say in effect “Look, this is the possible. This is the future we are talking about.”

Ask yourself this;

America served as an example to a chained world of the promise and possibility of democracy. Where would we be now without that shining light?
