Guilty of Success

Do you ever hear the whiners out there? Those people that love to complain and never accept responsibility? Glenn Woiceshyn reminds us all of their motivations:

“Most people today, including most businessmen, accept the tenet that greed as such is evil. This obliterates the life-and-death moral distinction between those who create their wealth and those who loot it, and is rooted in the ethics underlying socialism — altruism and egalitarianism. Altruism tells man he must sacrifice himself to others, which leads to the egalitarian dictum that wealth should be forcibly equalized regardless of effort and ability. As Ayn Rand argued, egalitarianism is a perversion of justice and a vicious assault on ability, and is motivated by something even more evil than envy, “hatred of the good for being good. This hatred motivates people to sneer at, criminalize and humiliate men and women of ability and success — using “greed” as a rationalization.”
