Ayn Rand and Special Needs Kids
Posted by richrobinson 11 years, 1 month ago to Philosophy
A customer just saw my Who is John Galt shirt. He said he wrote a paper in college called "An Objection to Objectivism". He said in an Objectivist world special needs kids would all be gassed. He objected to Rand only valuing those who were the best and brightest and not caring about the rest. He was clearly passionate about the issue so I respectfully disagreed and he said the books are interesting and that was his only objection. I was surprised and perplexed as to how he came to that conclusion. Any thoughts???
