Continuing - "Neither power-lust nor stupidity are good motives."
More by Ayn Rand - "Force and mind are opposites; morality ends where a gun begins."
"A government is the most dangerous threat to man's rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims."
"Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual)."
"The man who lets a leader prescribe his course is a wreck being towed to the scrap heap." (Speaking of lockstep Republicans!!)
So much for conservatives and Ayn Rand. She wouldn't recognize "our" self-proclaimed Libertarians, would she!!

Ayn Rand - "Do not ever say that the desire to "do good" by force is a good motive."
