According to Objectivist David Kelley, financier Michael Milken has
done more for mankind than humanitarian Mother Teresa. Working from
this statement, Then Athena Said examines Objectivism, a philosophy
founded by Ayn Rand, and ultimately concludes, in opposition to
essential claims of Objectivism, that other people are a
fundamental part of reality. In making this claim, Then Athena Said
reconsiders Objectivism's central social tenet, the Trader
Principle, which dictates the bilateral exchange of value for value
between independent equals; elevates "reproductivity" to be on par
with productivity, Objectivism's central virtue; and derives a
"heuristic" for charitable giving. Relying, in part, upon economic
theory, decision theory under uncertainty, and game theory, Then
Athena Said examines unilateral transfers-including charity,
childrearing, bequests, retribution, gifts, favors, forgiveness,
and various infringements against persons or property-within the
Objectivist framework.
