tinyurl doesn't have a captcha. neither does comments or account creation on YC.

by xlnt 18y ago

There is a phenomenon where one forgets these things the moment he has kids (or becomes a teacher, maybe); the adults who were unreasonable to you may have been more reasonable when they were younger. Just a friendly warning. Better take si

he's not a thief. he committed fraud by giving fake names when opening bank accounts, or something like that. then these companies voluntarily deposited money into his accounts; that part isn't stealing , even if it's based on fraud. also

the high risk individual could have already had individual coverage, and kept it, and been paid a higher salary to compensate for less benefits.

I'm not an Objectivist. I think this is Ayn Rand hate gone awry. You don't know anything about me. And all I really said here is people should be responsible for themselves; that's not some crazy fringe idea, and it's not limited to Objecti

As you must be aware, many smart people disagree with you about Rand, and can back it up with something better than a youtube video. And anyway, you said her philosophy contains certain flaws. That doesn't imply it's not valuable and useful
