Absolutely it is.
Through conversations; I am under the impression that they believe failure is an end all destroying thing because they haven't been allowed to fail enough.

Excellent. I would add that Capitalism is the freedom to fail as well.

We have become a world of take care of me's.
They "have" to regulate the large industries and utilities because they are so big that competition is too hard or "impossible".
People constantly forget that if any industry turns foul from poor leadership or greed; THEY are the ones who can create an opportunity for themselves.
For some reason they don't want just anybody deciding to start their own water company serving their neighbors, so they call it a utility and regulate it. They see something that is difficult, label it impossible and then pass laws that make it illegal to try to compete. Finally to the companies that provide the service they both protect them and strangle them.
It is a cruel cycle of thought and action that makes the general public believe that they can do nothing for themselves and need to be taken care of by people who could not make it in the real world and decide to run for office instead.

Capitilism is freedom to succeed. Too many people think they cannot because they never have been shown the tools to think for themselves.

Years of leftist brain washing in schools against Capitalism. Hope we can change that.

I was talking to a friend of mine who said sometimes toys get bought out online and then resold on e-bay for multiple times the retail. He said the government should stop that. Gave us a chance to discuss the free market. I think he at least listened to what i said.

Did you see that Columbia Sportswear put out Star Wars coats this week? They were copied from the ones worn on the Hoth ice planet in Empire Strikes Back. At $400 each they sold out in a few hours and are now on Ebay for $900 and higher.

Hooray for the free market!

My "Taggart Transcontinental" and "Enjoy Capitalism" T-shirts are lots of fun to wear. I've had lots of positive reactions from the Taggart shirt, and lots of negative reactions over the Capitalism shirt.

Good for you :-)

Thanks!

I sure hope there are logically thinking women out there- they make up like 50% of the population and we are doomed if they are all liberals....
One almost thinks that humans have instincts like other animals, and its our choice to use our minds and control our actions rationally, or just be like other animals and go by instinct (emotion?).

I'm thinking AS will be too much. :-)

I recently purchased a hoodie, with the Starbucks "Guns and Coffee" logo on the front (many of you have seen this one). I then wore it to a meeting with our liberal Commissioner of Public Lands (I like to test fate, now and again).

Surprisingly...she actually gave me the "thumbs up" sign, when I was half expecting to be told to take it off or turn it inside out (which I would have refused to do).

Maybe I should try an AS logo shirt, next time...

Some people find it too thick, I think. (I mean too many pages). When I first read it, I was scared of Ayn Rand. I read parts of it in the library, and was afraid to actually check it out and take it to the house. (There were some "sentimental" notions I thought it would destroy.[It did; but eventually, I saw that I did not need those notions]). That was after I did check it out and take it to the house. I was about 17.

My biggest concern is that the folks that want to stop Trump will do something to crash the Market and the economy. A lot of entrenched people want him gone.

Most, if not all women are controlled by emotions. It's just a fact that liberals make more use of emotions, than logic, which makes their worldview that much more attractive to women than men.
Thank goodness that their are still many American women who chose not to take the bait.

I voted for Trump in the general election (though not the primary), because I saw it as a choice between certain death and Russian roulette. Who knows what will be going on in 2020?

I once heard something about a "Rearden Steel"
T-shirt, and wanted to try to get one; but I did not see that I could make sure beforehand that it would not me made in China, so I didn't.

I think you are right about that. Trump supporters are tough.

Yes, it's cool. There are really many more "like minds" out here, they just haven't all come out of the closet (so to speak) yet. All it would take is a real attempt to impeach and get Trump out of office to bring a bunch more out in the public's eye.

I dont have a lot of patience for american women these days. They seem to be controlled by the leftist emotions, which I find very unflattering. Once I find out a person has voted for Hillary, I dispense with contact with them if at all possible.

Excellent.

Thanks. Now I have a next year Christmas gift idea for both myself and the brother who introduced me dino to Ayn Rand via Christmas gifted AS DVDs.

It was a gift. I have a customer who has a "Who is John Galt" license plate holder. I mentioned that I liked the book and we have talked about it many times since. He saw these hoodies and said he knew who would wear one of those. Pretty cool.
