Well PROGRESS!!! We're going to solve all the problems of the world obviously. We're not going to give up on altruism, we just want it to be more efficient. I say WE, I don't really speak for anyone else of course. And there were plenty of Free Marketers going on before too: Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Cuban. Grace Hopper, ARPANET, There is room for personalities of all types. It takes a lot of people to make a world. Also this thread kind of inspired my other thread, I thought I would try to defend Objectivist Philosophy using XP as the stakes. Was pretty funny, got gloriously down voted and boo'd, but hopefully some laughs. Anyways I'm being sentenced back to SOPW where I have to write code! I'm going to read Whole Earth Discipline in the mean time. bye.
