And I don't remember it well enough to comment.<br /><br />I find it hard to believe that people still buy Ayn Rand's philosophy, but there's a lot I find hard to believe these days!Bill Garthrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08552459555883204060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379287241318002122.post-66067467047311081362011-04-23T22:22:48.678-05:002011-04-23T22:22:48.678-05:00It's really quite funny that you did a blog ab...It's really quite funny that you did a blog about Ayn Rand because I've been thinking about Objectivism because "Beggars in Spain's" Yagaiism is basically identical to Objectivism and I was very pleased that the main character in "Beggars" rejects Yagaiism and begins to form her own philosophy which has compassion for all people. <br /><br />So maybe we just need to send a copy of "Beggars in Spain" to Paul Ryan and anyone else that shares his philosophies.
