Why Trashing Ayn Rand's Philosophy of Selfishness Is Hypocritical

in philosophy •  7 years ago 

helping someone or somebody can be interpreted in several different ways. Following Ayn Rand theory you can help someone if that brings you some comfort, self satisfaction, or nirvana or some sort so then the question is morally did you help them or did you helped yourself? Also, in my opinion when you are helping someone either financially or physically you are allowing that person to rely on you. In certain societies I have witnessed these type of behaviors disables masses and cripples economy. I'm open to teaching a man how to fish but I will never fish for any man.
