We are all being indoctrinated every moment, receiving electromagnetic impulses this way and that. Indoctrination, as I see it, is neither good nor bad. It simply exists. One may call it life imprinting. To some of us who have had the "indoctrination" toward the "free choice" ideology, and that ideology is consistent with our lifestyle at present, that is how we view things. To those of us who have been indoctrinated toward "victemhood" and continue that motivation consistent with a lifestyle, then that is how we view things. How we view things conditions our (re)actions. In the sexual arena, for example, sex/human slaves/trafficking shall be part of the indoctrinated experience of victemhood conditioning that has not been conditioned otherwise. The discussions of the good/bad continue around porn, abortion.etc., when one places these issues in any "moral" dialectic good/bad emotional category. Rather I see it this way.

How am I doing putting logic before emotion, well in some areas & if I am to belive your last 2 posts, not so well in others. I'm ok with that. I'm human not vulcan & my emotions are what make me so. I don't Believe I'm anti-prosperity because I know the horrors of addiciton & I have yet to meet a casual crackhead, functional methhead or social junkie. Alcohol is legal & in my state you must be 21 to buy it, so why is it that when I walk into a detox, rehab, or jail I find almost 50% of the people are underage? Making addictive substances legal & saying only for adult consumption doesn't work. Now I'm not a prude & I have no religious conviction-I'm not looking down on anyone-I'm simply pointing out a glaring hole in this particular belief & again I don't believe that makes me anti-prosperity, but that's the thing about beliefs they are subject to change or should be. Thank You for your thoughts as always. Peace & Prosperity, Derrick Randy,

Some people make their own decision to do drugs for example - Are they victims? No way - they at some point made the decision to make the first step. Each one of us had exactly the same opportunity to make that critical decision. Another example financial debt - each one of us made the decision to get into debt you name it credit card, consumer (car debt) or mortgage debt. Again they should be held accountable for their decisions. People are blaming the bankers, etc. I had exactly the same option, I made pretty good money (top 10% income in the US) however I still made the decision to not get into a $500,000 mortgage. Why - Because I am responsible and accountable of my own decision and doings. I am not expecting for the goverment to bail me out. People here in US want the Benefits of the Socialism (Social bail-outs) with the freedom of the Capitalism. Well that is utopia ; that does not exist.

If laws are infringing on your personal freedom and choices, do you think it's prosperous or anti-prosperous to break those laws? Carmen Randy

I found your comment rather interesting. If laws are infringing on your personal freedom and choices, do you think it’s prosperous or anti-prosperous to break those laws?

Isn't that just another restriction imposed by politicians that think that they know what's best for you and whether you're capable of making that decision?

For what it's worth I realized that every other person and business believes they are acting rationally. This led me to the conclusion that with an irational marketplace believing it is always acting rationally some form of government regulation is needed - unless the entire population adopts Objectivism - which aint going to happen.
