When you run after your thoughts, you are like a dog chasing a stick: every time a stick is thrown, you run after it. Instead, be like a lion who, rather than chasing after the stick, turns to face the thrower. One only throws a stick at a lion once. Milarepa “Just as it is known t hat an image of one's face is seen d epending on a mirror b ut does not really exist as a face, s o the conception of "I" exist d ependent on mind and body, b ut like the image of a face t he "I" does not at all exist as its own reality." Nagarjuna "Thanks to impermanence, everything is possible. Nagarjuna

Democrat and Republican Politicians are very similar in their biggest desire is to keep their job, spend you money and devise ways to get more.
The vast majority of recipients of government assistance do not game the system. In the minds of the Lisas of the country, however, the opposite is true. The couple in the cartoon represent the evil "takers" that Ayn Rand hated and wished to see dead. This demonization/hatred for the poor is something Libertarian/Objectivism has in common with Conservative/Republicanism.
ReplyDeletei reject your interpretation of Ayn Rand out of hand. You are certainly entitled to your opinion. However, be advised this post is not about Ayn Rand and therefore this discussion is ended.
DeleteHate is a powerful emotion and I've found over my many years on this earth those who incessantly accuse others of hating are the ones filed with the most hate. It that you Dervish?
I've found that opinions can change about Rand if you actually read her. But yes this item is not about her. Looking forward to the next one that is.
