Back Matter 3: One Way that Objectivism Can Save the World. by Robert Villegas

One Way that Objectivism Can Save the World. by Robert Villegas

A few days ago, I posted the following:
Someone said, "Objectivism needs more leaders and defenders". Agreed. It also needs a fundraising desk. Not “please donate to philosophy.” I laid the case out in "Can Objectivism Save the World".
In one part of my book, I wrote
"...Objectivists must be all over the billionaire financiers, bankers and money managers. If they are going to spend their money engineering society in the way that George Soros did, then Objectivists must come calling with a better set of ideas, a new philosophy that actually values money and what it can do to improve people’s lives. Why shouldn’t they invest in solid ideas to build a new capitalist infrastructure for society. Wall Street should become Rand Street.
a. Cashing in on freedom and flourishing. If our ideas are correct, we should become the next billionaires among capitalists.
To this I envision hundreds of meetings in Manhattan and Chicago, to name a few, where an Objectivist makes a presentation to financiers about promoting capitalism in our society, giving capitalists the funds necessary for creating more professorships in the universities that can argue against the socialists and advocates of CRT. They should fund schools and classes to impart ideas to teachers and professors about how to argue for capitalism and how to debunk the flawed ideas of socialism, the government-business alliance and pragmatism.
They should ask for funding for courses such as how capitalism works, how to be an analyst, how to start a company, how to get out of poverty by producing. Companies already pay for programs for socialists. They should rather pay capitalists who will defend the system that makes them money.
They should establish a call center to reach out to companies, a team that calls firms and sells programs to educate people about capitalism in order to provide education about the only social system that creates wealth in society. Capitalism is not evil. Capitalism is great and worthy of support from the men who actually get rich by being capitalists.
I have written several books on "Finding Sponsors" for sport and entertainment. Why can't objectivists seek sponsorship and marketing impressions in the same way that sport does today?

Back Matter: “Can Objectivism Save the World?” by Robert Villegas

Description:  This book is targeted at readers who are familiar with the philosophy of Ayn Rand, as well as general readers who are familiar with the goals of her writing. I have always felt that the influence of Objectivism on society was of paramount importance for the history of civilization. I have felt that Objectivism is the philosophy of the future if there is to be a future. This book argues that this is still the case while there is still much to be done that will eventually win the day. The most important principle I have garnered from my studies of Objectivism is that Objectivism is more than a philosophy of standards. Objectivism is a standard of work , and this fact makes Objectivism the most unique philosophy in history. The only thing for Objectivists to do, then, is to get to work, not just to apply the principles of Objectivism, but to take over the world, own it, treasure it, protect it, and live morally under the guidance of a moral code that is truly moral.

Is DEI killing the WNBA?

Copyright 2026 by Robert Villegas The modern mind has been taught to view important issues outside the context of the fundamental ideas that give rise to them. This causes people to strip away the fundamentals, leaving only specific actions, disconnected from root causes, to characterize their comments. Cognitively, observers are left with the mentality of a lab rat (that responds to actions by reversing cause and effect) leaving only intuition and non sequiturs as explanations. Because of this the events of modern times are interpreted as if they were laboratory experiments - billiard balls bouncing off one another – leaving men to understand only the emotional aspects of events without connection to fundamental principles. A good example is the recent fist to the throat of Caitlin Clark by Alyssa Thomas in a recent WNBA basketball game. Caitlin Clark, fearing backlash says very little, while Alyssa Thomas declares it an accident with no meaning whatsoever. What the opinion mongers t...
