Self interest and the common good are mutually exclusive concepts, and an oxymoronic duality when applied to economics. Please stop with the "Invisible Hand" nonsense. You Rand/Smith acolytes are infantile in your evangelical belief in this purile hocus pocus. It's no better than a cult; whose cynical leaders unfortunately also controlled our economic policy, and forced us all to drink the kool-aid, willing or not. Much carnage resulted. How many more contrived boom/bust cycles and bailouts must we endure before people stop pumping unregulated capitalism? Lose that religion folks.
