No, it's not crazy, it's the way civilization works. And it's the way civilization HAS worked since we climbed out of the trees.

We are community animals that build things by our combined effort and mutual support. That's how we've survived as a species. No civilization that I'm aware of has ever been constructed around the "everyone for themselves" mentality that Ayn Rand values so much.

Civilization is not pay-as-you-please. I don't like paying for the Iraq War but that's how civilization works.

If you don't like it, move to Somalia where they have the perfect radical libertarian paradise. Good luck.

EDIT TO ADD:
By the way, your pizza argument is not valid as it is a classic fallacious application of Reducto Ad Absurdum. Try again.
