The world Rand wants to return to
Quote from OPTIONAL777:
Medicine is a business these days...he is a businessman.
He said it should be okay for a business to discriminate on the basis of race...he did not exclude the business of medicine.
Quote from OPTIONAL777:
Without the Federal government's involvement, we would still have slavery in the South...
Quote from Mercor:
What does slavery have to do with it.
The only reason the Federal Government got involved is because the Democratic Southern states succeeded from the union.
This gave the legal right for the Federal Government to take action.
Quote from OPTIONAL777:
The Civil Rights Act gives the Federal government the legal right to take action against businesses practicing racism...something that Rand wants to stop...
Rand wants to restore the South to the states having the right to practice racism if they so choose...including slavery by private business.
In some perverse way, Rand places human rights below the rights of a business...
Quote from Mercor:
Rand does not argue against the Civil rights bill because he wants to practice discrimination.
You are going in your stupid little circles just to keep this thread going...Give it up. Rand does not want to discriminate.
You fool. We all know at your diner you would refuse to serve conservatives. You are the close minded bigot here.

Quote from OPTIONAL777:
Paul currently owns a private ophthalmology practice in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
I have to assume Paul, as most other doctors took the Hippocratic Oath.
So, a doctor in private practice, a private business...
...does the doctor who hates blacks get to refuse treatment of someone on the basis of race in Paul's world?
Does the Hippocratic Oath only apply when a doctor approves of a particular race?
Is it ethical for a private practice businessman, who happens to have a business of medicine as his business, to refuse treatment on the basis of race?
