Perhaps. I'd definitely like some objectivist political and economic influence though, and I believe the parts of the philosophy applying to individuals would benefit society greatly if widely adopted. Which parts do you think which would fail society? The abolition of the welfare state?
But by definition, society is about the collective and not the individual.
Yes, that and the general idea of putting yourself and your being over those who are in a worse position. Society is better judged through compassion to the needy and masses than the isolated successes of a few...

You got set that for homework? Wow. How would you prove the 'only' bit then?
I'm ashamed to say I've never done a BMO.
It was just the 'AEA group' that got that for homework, but obviously we weren't expected to be able to do it. It was just a see-if-you-can-do-this-question sort of thing.
I still don't really know how you'd prove the 'only' bit although it does make sense intuitively that it couldn't be anything but a parallelogram.
You should give some BMO questions a go as they're not all as difficult as you might expect. This is certainly very do-able for example:
Find four prime numbers less than 100 which are factors of 3^32 - 2^32.
Here's another that's quite easy once you spot a thing or two:
Let n be an integer greater than 6. Prove that if n − 1 and n + 1 are both prime, then n^2(n^2 + 16) is divisible by 720. Is the converse true?

Do you think it is acceptable to do otherwise on these threads?
Fine. I'm really enjoying Mechanics (although I self-teach it since I can't get lessons due to a time table error ) and Chemistry, oh, and Physics (except electricity. Dear. God.) but Biology is annoying me (die Biodiversity. Die.) and English Lit is lovely. Annnnnnnnd I managed to make the Maths dept enter me for the C1 exam in January since my school want everyone to take all their exams in June (silly, no?).

Reading that back I sound like a right commie
That appears to be the long established idea, though I would argue that it is also about the relationship between the individual the groups within society and the collective as a whole.
No, not at all, and just because some may associate your views with an idea which once again associated with the likes of Lenin, Stalin and Mao does not make what you say invalid.
School? Or extra-curricular stuff? How are your A-Levels going?
Drawing... () And they're fine. Have been quite close to writing rude comments on Ecology/Biodiversity questions "Suggest how the student could take a representative sample of the population of daisies in a field" but other than that I've been very well behanved. Quite poorly for the past week though. Teachers reckon it's because I keep walking 8 miles to school and back each day (and it's so damn dark at 7:00am now!) You?
