And on another note, did win any seats in the qld election? Didn’t think so

People bang on about Atlas Shrugged, but I think the most important one is The Fountainhead. Rand was totally prescient re the media and her vile character Ellsworth Toohey. And also the whole question of integrity, and mediocre groupthink, all that stuff.

Atlas Shrugged is one of my favourite books have read it again and again, certainly a lesson to be learned

In a nutshell, libertarianism and deregulation may seem appealing but lead to crises later; Rand's influence on Greenspan's policies is evident—while they fueled the economic ease of the '90s, they ultimately contributed to the 2008 crash, placing the burden on the middle class. When the 2008 crisis unfolded, Greenspan admitted to flaws in his economic worldview, stating in congressional testimony that he had found "a flaw in the model that I perceived is the critical functioning structure that defines how the world works." Mind you, Russian Tsar Nicholas II, influenced by libertarian ideals and his closeness to the people, loosened control of the country excessively. This ultimately contributed to the downfall of what was then one of the greatest economies, setting the stage for the Russian revolutions. Also The Weimar Republic (1919–1933), broadly based on liberal ideas, led to chaos and hyperinflation, ultimately preparing the country for Hitler's rise. In figures: In the 1920s, Germany's reparations ranged from 5–10% of GDP annually, reduced to a 2% before Hitler exploited this burden to justify taking control. In contrast, current U.S. interest payments on national debt are about 2.4% of GDP, and Australia's are around 0.7% of GDP (projected to rise to 1.0% by 2025–26). We not far to go..

I love Ayn Rand's books.

Their idea of the purpose of life seems a bit sad and shallow... IMHO

Every politician should be obliged to read Atlas Shrugged. At 25 when I read it I saw the world more clearly and her philosophy has guided my life. The works of Ayn Rand should be mandatory for all high school students.

“Ayn Rand Derangement Syndrome” observed.

Ayn F**King Rand! Oh dear Mal. The bitter twisted woman who wrote leaden morose dirges. She's the original motivational hero worshipping fake. One Notion folk don't read Mal. Unless it's the bible of course.🐐

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayn_Rand

You can't beat a bit of good old fashioned mumbo jumbo: The core of Rand’s philosophy — which also constitutes the overarching theme of her novels — is that unfettered self-interest is good and altruism is destructive. This, she believed, is the ultimate expression of human nature, the guiding principle by which one ought to live one’s life. In “Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal,” Rand put it this way: "Collectivism is the tribal premise of primordial savages who, unable to conceive of individual rights, believed that the tribe is a supreme, omnipotent ruler, that it owns the lives of its members and may sacrifice them whenever it pleases." I mean seriously... www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/column-this-is-what-happens-when-you-take-ayn-rand-seriously

Don't you have some more affordability bills that you could fuck up somehow?

Rand, the woman who argued against government handouts her whole life then ended up being on social security in her last years.

$500 USD to learn about a capitalist so bad at capitalism she died poor on a pension in a govt supplied house. ?

Wee Mal , could you please explain to the Australian people that ; THIS IS NOT ENGLISH , THIS IS A CORRUPT FOREIGN LANGUAGE CALLED DOGLATIN THE LANGUAGE OF THE DEAD..... . THIS - IS -PROPER - ENGLISH - BUT -THIS - IS - NOT -TAUGHT - TO - AUSTRALIAN -CHILDREN....And the reason why is because then they would learn that there surname being in all capital letters means they are dead ! The reason for this is Admiralty Law , the law of the sea , because Admiralty Law can only deal with the dead. The lost at sea. It is an obscene racket you and the politicians have been running since 1973 , when Whitlam Corporatized the country and the people....The chances of you admitting this or replying are zero , you will never ever confront this despicable fact , and that is your greatest weakness , your just like the rest.

Finish the job trumpy, DRAIN THE EVIL ACADEMIC SWAMP!👍😍

And there you have it. "The ticket price is $500" And this is s post by Malcolm Roberts, who is always raving on about the cost of living! Tell us again, Malcolm; why did you voted against a rent freeze last year? I wonder how much the PHONy is being paid to "promote it"? As Malcolm Roberts likes to say FOLLOW THE MONEY

Ewwww

What to you get for $500USD? Why is it in USD?

Ayn Rand? Good grief Right dirty little mucker she was! Yeah.. nah

Careful this could be classed as "incitement" of the logical mind. Tony Burke et al won't like it.

any ' philosophy' that denies man's corrupt nature is totally flawed.

Hopefully they expose the ridiculous notion that mRNAs are contaminated with DNA. Also why local councillors reckons it’s appropriate to self elevate themselves to federal parliament

Is Cookie boy turning up

Can't wait will watch from QLD live stream . Pity Dr Peter McCullough can't live stream in from USA on the outstanding studies he has done in Cardiology effects of COVID vaccinations.

Will listen from Auckland.. set in my calendar. I guess 11 pm our time if it's in Perth.

Mass debate ? Very Fitting .

WA is in lockdown -sorry guys

thats right . and so it begins ♥️

It doesn't sound like a debate. All speakers are anti-vaxx conspiracy theorists.

Here's a better conference.

Expose the lack of proof of any viruses

I think Adrian MacRae is the main organiser. We will look at hosting a Keeping Children Safe Albany event in Perth the next day. I'll keep you informed. We are the group behind the pushback on "welcome to sex" sex training manual in libraries and the online pornography being distributed to minors through the Ebooks system. For our group it's a 800km round trip. Lol got to love WA

Senator Malcolm Roberts how can it be vs the WA premier when he won’t even be there? A ‘WA & Australian event ‘ 😂🤣🤡 no one cares what Pt Hedland council says and does and certainly no one cares what you think…the complete failure in the QLD election showed that. 🤦‍♂️🤡 This sounds like another pile of lies and misinformation.

Ask how much the tickets cost and how much goes to the PHONy party. Remember, Ticketek is owned by one of those globalist companies that Roberts raves on about.

👍 Hopefully they expose how Papua New Guinea excelled during the plandemic, despite their low vaccination rate & lack of Covid rules.

What a line up!

There is no debate. It's a pack of cooker nonsense. You don't dignify lies by attending and debating something with a cooker. All it does is to give the impression that cookers have a legitimate alternate argument. www.tga.gov.au/news/media-releases/addressing-misinformation-about-excessive-dna-mrna-vaccines
