To Daniel: I can’t tell whether you have actually read “Atlas Shrugged” or not (tho I’m guessing not), but you certainly haven’t read Ayn Rand’s “The Virtue of Selfishness” or her “Capitalism, the Unknown Ideal”. In both of these she analyzes why a government that protects your rights is a blessing and a requirement of civilized life but a government that violates rights is a curse to everyone. Thinking that Rand is anti-government is simply not true.
It’s everyone’s right not to agree with her. I just wish people would know what she actually said before they disagree.
