Individualism and Society

When I talk about individualism I will not exclude the word society out of it.Individualists work according to their own will.They live for themselves and never expect any other person to live for them.However,they live in a world where individualists make up the society.Both society and an individual seek benefits from one another.Wherever in a transaction one of them is at a loss,then they never deal in that transaction.The only thoughts that are kept in their minds before dealing are syllogism,logic and self-interest.If they offer a sanction then the transaction takes place otherwise it gets rejected.They let the dissenters go their way and do not swerve from their own and thus there is no place for any sort of indignant objection.
As Ayn said,"To interpose the threat of physical destruction between man and his perception of reality,is to negate and paralyze his means of survival;to force him to act against his own judgement,is like forcing him to act against his own sight.Whoever,to whatever purpose or extent,initiates the use of force,is a killer acting on the premise of death in a manner wider than murder:the premise of destroying man's capacity to live."
Individualists never deal with force but with a 'rational mind'and this is an only mean to his end.
Now an individual cannot seek all this without the society.Society has to finally deal with him so that he could attain the benefits.So,indirectly he is working towards building a society.But,this is not his main purpose.His main purpose is to fulfill his own needs.Society is there for the welfare of an individual and so the individual is always inseparabe from the society.
However,individual is always above the society.After all,it is the individual only who at the very first place comes up with new ideas and gives sanction to them by expressing these ideas in his work in turn leading to the growth and development of the society.He sees this growth as his greatest pride.It is like a physical expression of his true values.It is like deriving physical pleasure out of it.
