If self-interest is "bad" than does this mean that good is "society's
interest", "the government's interest", or perhaps "your interests".
Exactly whose interest are you going to substitute for self-interest?
And while we're at it who's going to enforce whatever interest is going
to take the place of self-interest?

Likewise who's going to enforce these no-money days, and will they be
using guns? I really don't feel that we're going to trancend self-interest
or achieve any kind of unity by going out and kicking-down this or that.
