"... Altruism declares that any action taken for the benefit of others is good, and any action taken for one's own benefit is evil. Thus the beneficiary of an action is the only criterion of moral value--and so long as that beneficiary is anybody other than oneself, anything goes." - Ayn Rand

    Governments are the only entity that should practice Altruism...to all else, altruism means death starting at the cellular level.

    The benefit to others is up to our own will and abundance as we see fit.

    To the Left?...Get over it...it's just the way things work. To try and change these facts means death to existence itself so bend over and kiss your what ever...Good By!
