History land wrote:Freedom for others is rational. They can only work for you if they choose so. If a indivudal does not want to work for you they don`t. Voluntary Choice is reason. You sound like a collectivist
How is it in MY interest to want others to be free. That they can now choose to reason or be individuals not under my control really doesn't help ME at all. If I did everything based on my own self-interest, I would see that having slaves is better FOR ME than having free employees. How is freedom for my slaves in MY rational self-interest? In your system, I should only care about myself and I should be exacting and calculating. The behaviors of one who acts purely in rational self-interest are not those of a Randian capitalist, but those of a sociopath.
Protip: Repeating the same argument again and again doesn't make it any more valid.
Protip 2: Calling me a name does not invalidate my argument.
