<I am NOT Saddam Hussein!>

Did I say you were Saddam Hussein? I don't remember saying that. Is Saddam Hussein a wonderful poet? NO!!! I just wondered what your opinion is on letting children starve to death. Some Randians/Libertarians believe that all charitable works should be personal volunteer efforts, which is difficult to pull off in famine emergencies sometimes, and some may even believe that when you consider survival of the fittest, and the vibrance of the gene pool, there is an argument to be made for letting natural consequences play out.

Anyway, the post was written out of curiosity, to better understand your political positions, certainly not as any kind of insult or accusation.
