For more of #AynRand’s perspective on #IndividualRights and how #government can protect them, here are some resources for those who want to explore the deeper significance of #IndependenceDay: https://newideal.aynrand.org/its-independence-day-not-just-the-fourth-of-july/

“The most profoundly revolutionary achievement of the #UnitedStatesOfAmerica was the subordination of society to moral law. The principle of man’s #IndividualRights represented the extension of #morality into the social system—as a limitation on the power of the state, as man’s protection against the brute force of the collective, as the subordination of might to right. The #UnitedStates was the first moral society in history.”

“#America’s inner contradiction was the #altruist-#collectivist #ethics. #Altruism is incompatible with #freedom, with #capitalism and with #IndividualRights. One cannot combine the pursuit of #happiness with the #moral status of a sacrificial animal.”

“It took centuries of intellectual, #philosophical development to achieve #political freedom. It was a long struggle, stretching from #Aristotle to #JohnLocke to the #FoundingFathers. The system they established was not based on unlimited majority rule, but on its opposite: on #IndividualRights, which were not to be alienated by majority vote or minority plotting. […] This was the great #American achievement.”

It’s the same with all the other immoral but pervasive pushes for the “right” to #HealthCare.
#IndividualRights (there are no others) don’t conflict. If you’re talking about conflicting interests you’re not talking about rights.

"Today, we are obliged to take the #Quebec government to court to ensure our #rightsrare respected," said Andrew Caddell, task force president.
"No legislation can abolish #IndividualRights, which is what #Bill96 tries to do by invoking the #NotwithstandingClause," added lawyer Michael Bergman.»

It is an informative and accessible read for non-lawyers and lawyers alike. And it is a crucial book for those who want to understand the present Court’s legitimacy crisis and its impact on American #democracy and #IndividualRights. I cannot recommend it enough.

Just unbelievable what the #conservative right-wing thinks they can get away with. #Republicans are trying to turn back the clock folks, and return us to the 19th century. The unmitigated gall is just stunning. So tone-deaf, so clueless. It’s long past time to shun these close minded fools, even if they are in your own family or circle of friends. Enough. Basta. #marriage #divorce #legal #choice #individualrights #relationships https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/stephen-crowder-divorce-1234727777/

* Providing weather data and forecasts isn’t a proper government function (natural phenomena can’t violate #IndividualRights) but given that NWS exists, this is an excellent opportunity for #Houston area residents to learn how to help themselves, and their neighbors, and maybe save lives.

As for #democracy, you have to draw the line somewhere as to what’s open to a vote or eventually that line will be drawn for you across your neck.
I draw that line at #IndividualRights and am uninterested in politics that start elsewhere.

Fine but then he started rambling how meat is terrible for climate and society should make meat prices umbearably high so the regular folk could not afford to eat it!
What a double standard, doing drugs is good but meat bad.
