in Support Gay Marriage, Support Religious Freedom on Will Wilkinson
"If you’re privately funded, you should be free to do as you like. Want to discriminate? Fine. Just don’t take tax money to do it."
Neo-liberalist bullshit. As long as you're not public, you can be totally unaccountable and exploit whole societies as much as you want, as long as you don't "take tax money" (but you can lobby for new laws, secretely contract with foreign governments, buy slave labour, and so on).
"And… if you support discrimination laws that touch purely private interactions and that benefit yourself, then you can hardly complain when others want those same benefits for their groups, too."
Hey, what about the discrimination made against unmarried people by marriage laws? How come gays shut up about that? Could it be because they want the money pot?

in Should Objectivists Become Mormons? on Will Wilkinson
This entry was pure nonsense.
Which would you rather be: someone who lives in prison for 100 years, or someone who lives free for 50 years?
Longevity has not nearly as much to do with "flourishing" as you make it to be.

"I hope this kind of ?studies? is not the only goal of its creator : it?s funny to sleep on a 1,200,000 euros bed when childrens die of hunger in the streets !"
A million euros will not get those government removed, but it will at least buy you a bed. I say that's a good deal.
