If you don't wish to sacrifice or realize life is about sacrifice... hell, I can't imagine what world of wonder you grew up in or want to live in. go live in it and leave the hard work to the rest of us, you and those who think like you safely out of the way. If you know anything of a dirt farm in the deep south, you know of sacrifice to the greater good and what it means.

What Ayn Rand misses completely is that each of us has a mind.

And with our mind we can think about what to do. Rand saw life as a natural curde reflex. "Greed is good". BS.

Good is good, and it is an existential truth Rand could never understand.
