"There can be no compromise between a property owner and a burglar; offering the burglar a single teaspoon of one's silverware would not be a compromise, but a total surrender - the recognition of his right to one's property." - Ayn Rand

    Sigh...except where people have the supposed "Right to Travel" and ignore things like private property rights as they extend to nations. From that discussion forward these types of Rand posts, provided that "Right to Travel" is true Rand philosophy, these quotes feel like feel-good fluff without substance. Oddly enough that exemption Objectivists seem to support; I cannot.

    Sorry, I do understand what was explained to me. I suspect few others here don't understand what I said or why I disagree with the premise.

    And you are so right. Everything congress does has a price tag and we know who's property is required for them to act.
