You can always depend on the socialists to rush in like a herd of well trained pawns to protect the corporatism, fascism and their precious oligarchs. Meanwhile the latter is corn holing the former and laughing at them for their brain dead support.

There are a lot of predictions in her book that are coming true in spades. Go reread Francisco's soliloquy on the Aristocracy of Pull.
"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 that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors- when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by 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."

It's religion to the Randnuts. You can't use logic to contradict theology, nor can you use logic to support it. It's a belief system based upon faith and no amount of facts, reason, logic, or discussion will ever sway the people who embrace it.
As religions go, it's a particularly stupid one....but then, all of them are.

I live in a Socialist country whose economy grew more then your economy this year and will do so next year, lest not forget the whole better schools, higher standard of living, no poverty and very little crime.
You also said that a socialist would protect corporatism.. which us just laughable, I personally don't think you've ever met a socialist or a social democrat.

Marx was far more of a prophet than Rand who just saw corruption in her own society and didn't like it.

In spite of the time you spend on this board, and contrary to your beliefs, you don't know or understand American dynamics. You keep harping and insisting on drawing equivalences or parallels that simply do not existent.
Or in short, your ignorance is palpable.

Or you could read the Wealth of Nations and actually learn a thing or two about economics.
