The Objectivist Ascension
It’s been a decade since I wrote those pages. At the time it seemed nothing more than my thoughts put to paper, a political and philosophical journal entry. Ayn Rand would be ecstatic at what has come to pass. Her trains of “second handers,” as she often called those who did not adhere to her “extreme capitalism,” were seen as inevitable victims of altruistic policies. If only she had seen the evil selfishness of altruism, perhaps she would have felt differently about it. Altruism is a collection of self aggrandized “do-gooders” that are more interested in the appearance of moral superiority and virtuous actions than they are in actually creating a fair and just society.

A Prologue to Anarchy
What is there to even talk about? It’s autumn again. Soon I’ll have the world back, when the beaches are deserted and the mountains become blanketed in snow. I hope this year will be better than last, more like the year before. The cold started early last year; it was deep and bitter, and continued on far too long into the spring. What’s the difference though... we’re all stuck here anyway, in this county; the world has closed its borders to us.
