  1. I don't see how this is altruistic at all. There are more values than just finical profit. Look, I agree from a business standpoint this is not the greatest idea, however Bill gates may have other motives that he holds higher than more money, or maybe he will find a way to make money out if. if his motive is not to make profit but to help people loose weight to help himself feel all warm inside then i see no problems with it. He is doing it for selfish reason, his own happiness and sense of satisfaction or worth.
  2. thanks very much for the welcome. I agree Alberta is the most capitalist province Canada, but you nailed it on the whith the religious right. its to bad they are so powerful here
  3. Hello everyone, My name is Michael, im a 22 year old student from Calgary. Objectivism has become a major force in my life since reading Atlas Shrugged when I was 17. I can say from page one it changed my life. At 18 (shortly after finishing Atlas Shrugged) I look Galts vow and have never looked back. I have also grown up around objectivism, my father and grandfather both helps Rand's work to the highest regard. I was taught value of capitalism, the free market, as well as logic and rationality. I look forward to having more in-depth conversations with like minded (and not) individuals. Thanks
