4. Politics: Capitalism through the performance of deeds by individuals who are selfinterested.
In the early 1960 ' s, a student asked a spokesman for Objectivism what would happen to the poor in an Objectivist ' s free society.
The spokesman answered, " If you want to help them, you will not be stopped."
If one reads Rand ' s works, Atlas Shrugged, or The Fountainhead, one will conclude that this would be the answer Ayn would have given to that student as well.
What do you conclude from the answer given by the Objectivist spokesperson? Is Objectivism, like Moral Relativism, the opposite of ethics? And what clue in what she taught leads to your conclusion?
