The Ultimate Good!

Today, on my way to the library to pick up a book, I noticed that one of the stacks in the Mackinnon building normally set aside for The Peak held a copy of a magazine I had never seen before.

Curious, I picked it up.

Clearly, someone with a sense of humour had been and gone.

The magazine is The Undercurrent, and it provides "cultural commentary based on Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism." I found in this particular issue articles with such titles as "Sacrifice Before Solvency: Business schools fail their students by emphasizing altruism rather than the virtues of wealth creation," "The Value of Atlas Shrugged" and "Why are we moving toward socialized medicine?"

Perhaps I will provide to The Undercurrent a few Ayn-Randian pieces of my own: "Why being a selfish prick is good," "Nestle takes India's water but at least it gives them jobs," and "Gay is OK, as long as I can still bash you."

Now, I think I will move this magazine to its appropriate place: the garbage.
