If someone is willing to pay for something does that make the person selling it immoral?
Is this like the Objectivist million dollar lunch box ethical problem?
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10551-019-04159-yFrom what is stereotypically and inaccurately thought of as a Randian perspective, all money-seeking activities is supposedly considered virtuous, including cases of exploitation. This is a false, if persistent and popular, interpretation of Rand. Greed, in the sense in which it is defined by rational egoism, is never good. Rational self-interest is virtuous behavior that helps one prosper. Greed is the unethical, irrational pursuit of things to which one does not have any right. The pursuit of wealth, as an expression of productiveness, is ethical. Dishonest means of acquiring or hoarding wealth are not. The everyday use of the word “greed” confuses these two concepts, which is why it should not be used at all"

What are you talking about? If a group of people were ever true capitalist, it's the jedis.
EDIT: It keeps changing the word on me! Fine, people of the jedi faith. How come Aldra can say it?
WTF Lanny we can't say J.E.W.S ?

What are you referring to here? The other points were easily noticeable traits that I've seen many examples of through their campaigns and their other forms of communication to the public. When have they denied heritablilty and for which specific diseases ? -

that's the point
it's a popular talking point that the j'ews largely created and pushed communism (see the original theory and the leadership of the Bolsheviks, the NKVD etc.) and that capitalism fights against that, but the same groups of people who benefited from communism also benefit from (crony) capitalism.
Trump is right, rigid ideologies are just a way to control the masses by making them more predictable.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Facepalm Stephen King for putting in so much filler, and for a shitty ending.
I read "IT" much faster, it's about the same length. It was pretty solid through the whole thing...except in the end when there's a pre-teen gangbang orgy, and that's what kills the monster.
Seriously? -

hows that a counterpoint ?
she wasnt at the helm of the empire, her husband justin was. she was just there as a trophy wife and a consort. -

capital feudalism is the end result of lazy fairy economy. and your pharma feudal lords just decreed that you have to get your mark of vaxx to be their subjects.
