"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion--when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing--when you see money flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors--when you see that men get richer by graft and pull than by hard work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you--when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self sacrifice--you may know that your society is doomed." -Ayn Rand
Yeah, she sure was crazy alright.

Man, looks like the pages in your "Atlas Shrugged" stick together.
That's just nasty!

Corruption in the government is one of those things everyone knows happens daily but is refused to be acknowledged
Instead we bicker about homicide cases and who said what in what context

I've never had a conversation with an Ayn Rand critic who didn't sound like he was reading from a script.
I don't know a single thing about Karl Marx's personal life because his critics always focus on the nonsense of his philosophy and economics. I know tons of nasty little details of Ayn Rand's personal life because every single one of her critics tries to tell me about them.

That's funny, I don't know a thing about Ayn Rand other than she was a [mod] author with a loony straw-man philosophy.

She was upset because her social security check was late.

So she cynically described every civilization and every nation that ever existed, from it's outset to it's downfall....and you think that this is an accurate prediction of your nations current situation?
You are as bad with Rand as fundies are with the bible and always talking about "the end times" and "it's exactly what the bible said would happen".
Just a hint for you, people have been saying that about the bible for about oh...1900 years now.
I'm sure some "true believer" of "the glorious prophet and super duper thinker Ayn Rand" will be saying that about whatever country they happen to be living in a couple of hundred years from now.
It's sickness btw, you can get help for it.
