Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism

RE: Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism
(July 11, 2016 at 6:06 pm)Excited Penguin Wrote: The more intelligent you are, no matter how selfish you can be, you'll still help others, because that is in your own self-interest. The dumber you are though, you can be a saint, you'll probably do more harm than good and not even know it. That's how I think the world works.

That's not how she saw it. She talked about moochers, not about intelligence. People sitting back and taking it from the makers. And nevermind the fact that in her late years she herself became a moocher living off social security. Because she simply couldn't afford her cancer treatment anymore. Splendid example of hypocrisy. She couldn't even live up to her own standards.
