Since the last thread was a disaster we should start a new inspiration thread. Post whatever inspires you to work hard at building your /biz/iness!

Let's try to keep this one from descending into plebeian materialism. No one has ever been motivated by mansions, penthouses, exotic cars, and blonde bimbo whores.

Ayn Rand is my inspiration.

>>551516
>>551526
How difficult would it be with the trillions we pay in tax to rent a few rooms for all the homeless drug addicts you see everywhere? The system is useless, it's a mess. You have to wonder if it might be better if ordinary folks could keep most of the money the state indirectly taxes and regulates from them and spend it on voluntary charity themselves.

Why is it so inefficient? Evil corporations? People have been railing against evil corporations for decades, most voters are cynical in this regard, the current political culture has done as much as it can against crony capitalism already. No, the problem is the excessive trust we place in the government and the propaganda machine which keeps people misinformed. Rather like the socialists who give up all their freedom to the "people's republic" the social democrats place all their trust in some politician.

Am I wrong? Does it make me a McCarthyist for noticing the similarity? I suppose republicans and others are similar too, putting all their faith in the church or other forms of collectivism, hence pic related. This just bolsters my point, all of these things are just another form of collectivism and should be treated as such, thrown in the trash. I think we secretly knew all along that we must give up our utopian fantasies and strive to become Randian übermensch/überfrauen.

Ayn Rand is a terrible person. Her quote doesn't make sense. There's a difference between a marginalized group fighting for their significance, then say hitler fighting for LE ARYAN

Good causes can still be abused.

This is one of the major pieces of propaganda used by extremists. They take up a good cause, for instance the dream of a community utopia, then if someone says "oh I want a free society so I'm just going to criticize you a little" they claim this person opposes the communist utopia and is an evil capitalist etcetera...

Lenin's followers might have believed they were fighting for their significance but Lenin wouldn't hesitate to kill or torture any of them if they threatened his power. For all his lofty ideals he committed countless atrocities, because of the system he was in, a system of tyranny which is only interested in power and only views things like religion or ideology as propaganda.

He was lying basically.

Ayn Rand's quote here makes absolutely no sense.

Let me break this down. She is saying: Any argument for the "good of the people" or good of all, is inherently evil. People should only consider what is good for themselves and strive for personal success, with disregard for the collective.

Wow. If it weren't for "collective concerns" women would not be able to vote. What a dumb fucking cunt. She can shove Atlas Shrugged right up her deluded cunt.
