  J, think of it this way. The movie royalties to ARI allowed them to offer knowledge. This is a war of ideas. There is great value in educating people. We have the world to win

    I agree and understand. I was trying to be humorous. Often tonal inflections don't translate to written text. Given that you say "We have the world to win", I take it that you think that we should have an aggressive campaign to win minds.

Boy, this Ayn Rand writer just keeps cropping up everywhere. 'We' need to check her out.

"We", who types these words on a keyboard using "our" two hands, like Anthem.

"Athem" probably had the greatest emotional impact on me of anything by Rand which I've read.

More than AS, more than The Fountainhead.

Perhaps because it put the issue as starkly as "1984" put the issue of totalitarian collectivism.
