Haha, thanks for the laugh, this is why right wingers are under the delusions that this atheist had any interest in people helping those around them, she was all about me, myself, and I, at the expense of others.
Notice how urban life ignored
Barack Obama: Irrational self-interest and government dependence.
Yep, democrats claim it's too hard for the poor to get a voter ID, how can we expect them to get an education and how can the poor expect to get out of poverty? ...On the backs of other people.
You keep telling you that while your wealthy overlords stand on your backs enjoying the philosophy of Ayn Rand and all the people willing to let them stand on them in the hopes of one day being rich like them too.
So pardon me if I don't take your diatribe against Rand followers very seriously. I mean, I haven't seen you advocating for throwing Reid out lately. There is nothing that liberals complain about conservatives doing that they don't do themselves and simply cover it up with loud proclamations of how moral and compassionate they are.
You do realize that most people in power - in both parties - are effectively also following the key tenant of Objectivism, right? That one's own personal happiness is all that really matters... Why else would they seem so smug as they run the nation off the cliff for their own personal gain?
Ayn Rand's philosophy is nothing but egotistical drek and mumbo-jumbo written up to make being a selfish twit seem "rational" and "the right thing to do." Both parties do this, even if they don't realize it, but only right-wing extremists actually support Rand's lunatic ideas.
As for claiming that I haven't "advocated throwing Reid out," if you actually READ my posts, you'd know that I have nothing but disgust for our leaders in both parties. However, I do hold even deeper contempt for the current crop of right-wing lunatics who seek to make the situation worse than it is and who feel that they can ignore facts and history if that suits their purposes.

None of the characters in Atlas Shrugged were seeking "monetary success" as a primary motivator, or goal.
They weren't interested in "all terrain vehicles" or astro-turf lawns.
