It's not about the virtue of selfishness, it's about earning your way in life. You can still be kind and a good friend without supporting some low-life that's too lazy to work for a living. This doesn't mean that I'm picking on disabled people. I know many intelligent people that require assistance because they are disabled that have contributed greatly to society. Does the name Steven Hawking ring any bells?
The purpose of Objectivism is not to be selfish in one's actions, but to earn your pay and expect the same of others, regardless of the hand you have been dealt in life.
