Ayn Rand described Objectivism as a "philosophy for life on earth". Concisely outlined as follows: Metaphysics—objective reality, or "Nature, to be commanded, must be obeyed." Epistemology—reason, or "You can’t eat your cake and have it, too." Ethics—self-interest, that "Man is an end in himself." Politics—capitalism, summed up by "Give me liberty or give me death."

One of my prevailing questions about Objectivism at the moment is how we should treat children and infants, the irrational beings from which we all arise.
