"@<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJQepiqSWvg&amp;t=21m22s"">21:22</a> - This here is my fundamental disagreement with Mr. Krugman and why I disagree with him on almost everything he publishes on economics and his Rawlsian views of morality. I.e. Fundamental disagreement in epistemology leads to absolute disagreement in morality and politics. (but great interview and glad you conducted it with him!)<br><br>"Any theory that propounds an opposition between the logical and the empirical", represents a failure to grasp the nature of logic and its role in human cognition. Man’s knowledge is not acquired by logic apart from experience or by experience apart from logic, but by the application of logic to experience. All truths are the product of a logical identification of the facts of experience."<br><br>Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology	Leonard Peikoff, “The Analytic-Synthetic Dichotomy,”<br>Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology," 112<br><br><a href=""http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/analytic-synthetic_dichotomy.html"">http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/analytic-synthetic_dichotomy.html</a>",(reply>), I'm very curious at what exactly impresses you in the works of Ayn Rand (apart from her really passionate portrayals of certain concepts). Don't you find much of objectivism quite reductionist? I mean, the philosophy stresses so much on individualism, but so little on the fact that each individual is participating in a pretty chaotic system.<br>I genuinely seek a discussion; this is no confrontation at all. I've talked to many objectivists, and I still can't find the logic behind their claims. I am still just starting to listen to the video, so I'll keep my further thoughts to myself before commenting more, until I get a clearer picture about what you mean by your disagreement.,(reply>)," @Lex Fridman Better get in touch with Dr. Yaron Brook then! Look up his YouTube channel. (<a href=""https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaron_Brook"">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaron_Brook</a> )<br><br>Sounds awesome! Also: I like Paul Krugman; I don't hate him. Same with Naom Chomsky. I disagree with them both fundamentally but I find them interesting because they are 180 degrees opposite. Just like I am studying the complete works of Immanuel Kant<br> because he is 100% opposite of Ayn Rand... it's like analyzing an inverted chart of data like a stock price ;)<br><br>Cheers!",(reply>), I've read a lot on objectivism and will be sure to interview prominent objectivist thinkers.
