Ayn Rand Philosophy, Objectivism, Science, Self-interest

[JKDS]

Does not choosing to work itself show primacy of reason? Does not choosing to slog through four years of college to get a special piece of paper show primacy of reason?

Emotions heavily guide both of these decisions. Depression and hopelessness is key to ppl choosing to give up a job search. Given how many ppl go to college for not "in demand" degrees and how many dont study very hard, emotion is likely the driving factor here too.
