You took vauge language about how people brains are able to value social causes and acted like that is in some way a response to the view that one should trade value for value? Objectivists are not greedy bastards, rather they are people who try to determine what it is they value and should value. From there they try to protect and achieve those values to the highest degree.I think Objectivists do value some social causes like defeating terrorists and the protection of people's natural rights. Objectivists are selfish but i don't like the conotation that comes with 'greedy'. An Objectivist would never steal or cheat someone (what i think of as greedy). Rather they want things and try to earn them. That is the worst attempt at an argument I have seen in a while.
