Oh, I have some major problems with a few of those. That makes it difficult to say they're objective.
- Be brave. - A serial murderer can be brave. A Nazi soldier can be brave. Bravery in immorality is not moral.
- Defer to superiors. - I don't buy this one at all. How does one make a judgment who is superior to whom? An anarchist holds no respect for the government. A slave holds no respect for a cruel master.
- Divide resources fairly. - Under libertarian capitalism the rich have a right to resources earned through their own hard work. The lazy poor guy next door has no moral right to what the rich man owns. I agree with a fair sharing of resources. But who decides what's fair? Equal distribution of resources is the only fair way to a socialist. A capitalist doesn't agree with that.
