John Dewey held that the purpose of education was not to teach the child science, literature, history or geography, but rather to prime him for social cooperation and community life. After a century of his “progressive educational” method being applied in American schools, a large percentage of students are unable to read, write, or reason.

In Ayn Rand’s novel, The Fountainhead, the character Howard Roark embodies the virtue of egoism. In the climactic courtroom speech he says:
“Throughout the centuries there were men who took first steps down new roads armed with nothing but their own vision. Their goals differed, but they all had this in common: that the step was first, the road new, the vision unborrowed, and the response they received—hatred.”

In Ayn Rand’s novel, The Fountainhead, the character Howard Roark embodies the virtue of egoism. In the climactic courtroom speech he says:
“The creators were not selfless. It is the whole secret of their power—that it was self-sufficient, self-motivated, self-generated. A first cause, a fount of energy, a life force, a Prime Mover. The creator served nothing and no one. He lived for himself.”

Justice Clarence Thomas is an American hero. He understands that the principle of justice applies to the term “equality” in one way: equality before the law. Thomas proudly defends the U.S. Constitution as “the very thing that protects our liberties.” His rise from the poverty-stricken backwoods of Georgia to becoming a supreme court judge in Washington, D.C., shows what is possible to those who choose empowerment over victimhood in America.

After the lowest point in baseball history, the 1919 Chicago Black Sox gambling scandal, Babe Ruth stepped into the limelight and saved the sport. He became one of the primary figures who made the "Roaring 20s" roar, giving hope to millions of people during the Great Depression. His rise from an “incorrigible and vicious” youth—in an orphanage—to the first great sports icon is a story of effort, perseverance, and courage. As he put it, “Never let the fear of striking out get in your way.”
He was so glorified by Americans that during World War II, enemy Japanese forces were trained to say one sentence in English: “To hell with Babe Ruth.”

In 1809, though the two men had never met, President James Madison wrote to General John Stark in recognition of “the part you bore as a hero and a patriot in establishing the independence of our country.” More than a quarter century after the Revolutionary War, it was still common knowledge that Stark, as Madison put it, was “a champion in so glorious a cause.”

“Happy Birthday, George Washington!” by Jon Hersey: https://theobjectivestandard.com/2018/02/happy-birthday-george-washington/
Animated by the anti-reason ideas of Immanuel Kant and G.W.F Hegel, Karl Marx preached a philosophy of class warfare and violent revolution. He promised a socialist utopia that would end poverty, inequality, and exploitation. Yet, between 1917 and 1989, Marxist regimes killed roughly 100 million people—and tortured, starved, exiled, and enslaved millions more. After being exposed as a thoroughly anti-life ideology, Marxism changed its skin. Today, eerily, the ghost of Marx still lurks.

Ayn Rand escaped the communism of Soviet Russia in her early twenties, came to the United States, and built a career for herself as the bestselling author of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. She developed the philosophy of Objectivism, which she said, “in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute.” Objectivism answered longstanding philosophic questions, clarifying the connection between facts and values; demonstrating the objective nature of the senses, concepts, and knowledge; and offering a rational alternative to pervasive mysticism and skepticism. Her novels, which portrayed men overcoming great obstacles to achieve ambitious goals, have impacted the lives of millions and continue to sell hundreds of thousands of copies each year.

Louis Pasteur’s groundbreaking science has saved countless lives and continues to do so today. He pioneered the development and use of vaccines, creating the first-ever vaccines for anthrax and rabies. His work was key in confirming the germ theory of disease, leading the British surgeon Joseph Lister to develop antiseptic surgical methods. And he developed the method of heat-treating beverages to destroy enzymes and bacteria that cause spoilage—pasteurization, that is. Here’s the inspiring story of one of the most life-serving scientists ever to grace the earth.
