All Rand's arguments ultimately rest on unsupportable assertions. Thousands of species have gone extinct. The Universe doesn't care if Man survives or not. If an alien species hunted us for food and into extinction they would not be doing anything wrong would they? "The meaning ascribed in popular usage to the word “selfishness” is not merely wrong: it represents a devastating intellectual “package-deal,” which is responsible, more than any other single factor, for the arrested moral development of mankind. (HELLO GREGGY!)" If you don't like the dictionary definition of a word because it fails to meet your self serving purpose that's too bad. Find a better word. You don't get to redefine words to suit yourself. (HELLO! HUMPTY!)?
