Ah, I made a mistake. And no, I can't. I have to stick to the plan as given by the teacher, rather than experimenting with stuff myself :(

damn...see..it's just an interesting idea.

please don't associate objectivism with fascism. although to be honest, i always thought that the only was for a collectivist stay to work effectively was for everyone to work in total obedience under force, like mindless robots. How about we made a schizophrenic state, you can either choose to live an easy comfortable life of total obedience but zero effort, or a life advocated by objectivist ideas of a libertarian society. You can choose to move between the two, but you have to follow the rules when you enter either. That way everyone wins...

Quotes of Awesome
Veblenia--I imagine it's like being the visionary that first thought of eating eggs. "See that thing that came out of the chicken's ass? Let's cook it."

Free Soviets--the intellectual culture here is interesting. we tolerate that massive diversity better than most places i've seen, but we expect you to either argue your shit or at least be funny.

Olthar--You're asking if people on NS are insane? That's like walking into a church and asking how many people are Christian.

Tokos--Yeah clearly he doesn't know Catholic dogma. You're not supposed to hate anyone. Jews are just infidel who rather spectacularly dropped the ball.

Were they stoned by means of intoxication, or physically stoned by having rocks thrown at them?

Either way, it's an accomplishment.
