Good to hear! I hear, far too often, people apologizing for being "selfish", or rather people trying to make other people feel guilty about being selfish. It is perhaps the #1 line of communist rhetoric... blaming individuals for only caring about themselves, and not the wellbeing of "the state". (Notice they would never endorse caring for your neighbours directly, but always through their own preferred bureaucratic middle-men.)

Have you heard of the book "The Selfish Gene"?
