Another block of separatist right-wing inhuman libertarian bullshit from The Ayn Rand Institute: U.S. Should Not Help Tsunami Victims

Which - as usual - misses the fact that in the long run, we all benefit from living in a stable and humane world in which people help each other out in times of trouble...

Comments

Please stay on-topic, informative and polite. I reserve the right to remove comments for whatever vague capricious reasons seem reasonable at the time.

Looks like the Ayn Rand Institute replaced the article, it now links to an Op Ed on Islamic Totalitarianism.

Note that the ARI article didn't say people in the US shouldn't give. It fact, it speaks highly of such generosity.

The point is that when politicians decide to give money, it is tax payers' money they are giving and that private giving is far more efficient and effective than taxation+foreign aid.
