Ayn Rand Comes To Somalia
In the absence of government bureacracy and foreign aid, business is starting to boom.

Extractions: Mogadishu May 2001 Atlantic Monthly In the absence of government bureaucracy and foreign aid, business is starting to boom by P eter M aass sponsored by: document.write(''); E-mail Article Printer Format T Telecom Somalia is the largest company in Mogadishu. It has 700 employees, and it offers some of the best and cheapest phone service in Africa. It also provides a clue to the possible resuscitation of the world's most famous failed state. In 1995, when the international community decided to wash its hands of Somalia and the last United Nations peacekeepers left the country, Mogadishu was a Hobbesian horror show. It remains a miserable and unstable place, a city where taxi drivers ruin their own vehicles, denting the body work and smashing the windows, so that thieves will not bother to steal them. But it is less dismal than it used to be, and better times may be on the way, owing to a new generation of businessmen who are determined to bring the lawless capital back to life. Mogadishu also has new radio and television stations (one night I watched the Somali equivalent of Larry King Live

Extractions: Essays [Readers will notice some connection between this essay and my piece " A Requiem for Ayn Rand?" I recommend you read the other first. I anticipate, however, eventually merging the two.] Lately my thoughts have been evolving about the life and philosophy of Ayn Rand (1905-1982), the Russian-American novelist-philosopher. For decades I have been defending her importance as a philosopher, while simultaneously trying to understand what is wrong about the parts of her philosophy which seem mistaken. As a young Student of Objectivism (Rand's name for her loyal followers), I did not question the truth of her ideas until 1970, when she gave her infamous interview to Cosmopolitan magazine. In the Cosmopolitan interview Rand mentioned that she thought no woman should ever be president of the United States. She said that the natural psychological reaction of (right-thinking) women is to worship men, and that the psychological burden of having to command and direct men would therefore be crushing for a woman president. Well, even in the sexist context of the time that seemed a deeply odd line of thought.

Extractions: @import url("http://www.who2.com/css/standard_gamma.css"); Name at birth: Alissa Zinovievna Rosenbaum Born and educated in Russia, Ayn Rand moved to the United States in 1926, moving to Hollywood to begin a career as a screenwriter. In 1932 she sold her first screenplay, but soon turned to writing novels. Her novel The Fountainhead was published in 1943 and eventually became a bestseller. Still occasionally working as a screenwriter, Rand moved to New York City in 1951 and published Atlas Shrugged in 1957. Her novels espoused what came to be called Objectivism, a philosophy that champions capitalism and the preeminence of the individual.

Admin Login Ah, there are days when I pick up (or click into) the Wall Street Journal and just get infuriated by the first article I read. Today we have the richest man in the world arguing for something called "Creative Capitalism" to help the worlds poor. Bill Gates, Microsoft Founder and Chairman, gave a speech today at the World Economic Forum in Davos Switzerland that is anything but a defense of capitalism. "We have to find a way to make the aspects of capitalism that serve wealthier people serve poorer people as well," Mr. Gates will tell world leaders at the forum, according to a copy of the speech seen by The Wall Street Journal. Mr. Gates isn't abandoning his belief in capitalism as the best economic system. But in an interview with the Journal last week at his Microsoft office in Redmond, Wash., Mr. Gates said that he has grown impatient with the shortcomings of capitalism. He said he has seen those failings first-hand on trips for Microsoft to places like the South African slum of Soweto, and discussed them with dozens of experts on disease and poverty. He has voraciously read about those failings in books that propose new approaches to narrowing the gap between rich and poor. In particular, he said, he's troubled that advances in technology, health care and education tend to help the rich and bypass the poor. "The rate of improvement for the third that is better off is pretty rapid," he said. "The part that's unsatisfactory is for the bottom third two billion of six billion."
THE ROOTS OF WAR

http://freedomkeys.com/ar-rootsofwar.htm

Extractions: Just as [Woodrow] Wilson, a "liberal" reformer, led the United States into World War I "to make the world safe for democracy" so Franklin D. Roosevelt, another "liberal" reformer, led it into World War II, in the name of the "Four Freedoms." In both cases the "conservatives" and the big business interests were overwhelmingly opposed to war but were silenced. In the case of World War II they were smeared as "isolationists," "reactionaries," and "America-First'ers." World War I led, not to "democracy," but to the creation of three dictatorships: Soviet Russia, Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany. World War II led, not to "Four Freedoms," but to the surrender of one-third of the world's population into communist slavery. If peace were the goal of today's intellectuals, a failure of that magnitude and the evidence of unspeakable suffering on so large a scale would make them pause and check their statist premises. Instead, blind to everything but their hatred for capitalism, they are now asserting that "poverty breeds wars" (and justifying war by sympathizing with a "material greed" of that kind). But the question is: What breeds poverty?
