Ayn Rand would be proud... (I think)

This is without a doubt the best arguement *for* selfishness I have found outside of Ayn Rands books.

I hear multiculturalism (cultural tolerance as a moral improvement)
capitalism pushes moral awareness
non-zero sum = socialism (actually said social organization)
I'll listen again when I finish my current task.

I didn't get multiculturalism or socialism from it. It sounded more like "Why dislike or avoid these groups of people when you could profit from them, while they in turn could profit too." or how I see it. Don't make fun of their turbans. Make designer turbans and sell it to them. You'll make cash, Mexico will get new jobs, and Iraqis will feel good about their self image while wearing their new uv protected stylish plaid turban. It's that whole non-zero sumness. =)

But if for nothing else, this particular link, was worth my time browsing these forums. Thank you, op.
