12th Book on Ability to Reason, Right to Consent; Proposition, Problem & Poem No. 269

Most likely to be published later this summer of 2022, my 12th book entitled appropriately; Propositions, Problems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover a slightly modified yet appropriate version of the 10th and 11th books...



PROPOSITION, PROBLEM & POEM No. 269

~ Amiss the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason / 1st Reprise ~

To expand further, well intertwined are the peculiar human ability to reason and self-interest, so much so, quite easily and universally observed, logically determined then properly argued as synonymous else inseparable. To quote from her 1957 novel Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand (1905-1982) wrote per the inherent passion thereof.

I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.

As starkly cold some may interpret this quote, equally thus unavoidably practiced by each and every individual since the specie human first reasoned, the one point in history and forward shared by both the Evolutionist and Creationist (see Proem & Poem No. 199 and Proposition, Problem & Poem No. 267). From here, it follows.

Firstly, best exemplified the beauty of self-interest respected thus regarded per modest governance, when individuals separately calculate, speculate, labor and produce, then in the marketplace of mutual consent, not taxed, regulated, subsidized, prohibited, sanctioned, confiscated nor seized, negotiate and exchange their goods and services, all proportionately satisfied even benefited.

No one actor empowered politically, governmentally enough to interfere, intrude, impose per inherently unavoidable biases and prejudices covetously driven, yet properly moderated each individual by fully bearing his/her responsibility and risk, therefore appropriately guided every person by wholly exercising his/her peculiar human ability to reason for resultantly not awry, askew nor amiss.

Conversely, best exemplified the ugliness of self-interest disrespected thus disregarded per arrogant governance, when individuals separately calculate, speculate, labor and produce, then in the marketplace of covetous presumption, well taxed, regulated, subsidized, prohibited, sanctioned, confiscated or seized, adjust and transact their goods and services, all disproportionately unsatisfied even harmed.

One or more actors empowered politically, governmentally enough to interfere, intrude, impose per inherently unavoidable biases and prejudices covetously driven, yet improperly moderated each individual by not fully bearing his/her responsibility and risk, therefore inappropriately guided every person by not wholly exercising his/her peculiar human ability to reason for resultantly quite awry, askew nor amiss.

--- 

O the covetousness, presumption and the inevitable violence
Hyping as rights others’ possessions, nonesuch the vehemence
Insomuch the fraudulence, so preceding the deceitful polyanthus
Such savoring fragrance for minds susceptible then superfluous

Question neo-truths, hoary lies, either oft connived then derived
Attired withal bane, polity then gains per the contrived as strived
Slurred verses for blurred curses o’er private purses then purposed
Covetousness fitly stirs as the public booty disperses as rehearsed

---

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
