Statements like: "developers lives in their gold-tower ... > neglecting the people using their product" sound pretty ridiculous to me. Agreed. -- Jane Galt Property Rights The right to life is the source of all rightsand the right to property is their only implementation. Without property rights, no other rights are possible. Since man has to sustain his life by his own effort, the man who has no right to the product of his effort has no means to sustain his life. The man who produces while others dispose of his product, is a slave. Bear in mind that the right to property is a right to action, like all the others: it is not the right to an object, but to the action and the consequences of producing or earning that object. It is not a guarantee that a man will earn any property, but only a guarantee that he will own it if he earns it. It is the right to gain, to keep, to use and to dispose of material values. - Ayn Rand, The Virtue of Selfishness Mans Rights, The Virtue of Selfishness, 94.
