the prose is worse than the philosophy, and the philosophy slightly more obvious than its resemblance to the actual life of frank lloyd wright.

Complete one dimensional approach to human beings and characters. Her main characters are simply vehicles to promote her ideology and anything that is so blatantly political sucks. Her prose is shit, it's 800 pages of pure shit. The philosophy is one of selfishness, in an era of corporate super powers the government is a necessary force to keep them under control, but faux conservatives would rather promote the ideology of selfishness because they receive corrupting campaign donations from thei paymasters. People have criticized her hypocrisy of deriding the welfare she received, but you don't see many calling her out for being jealous that her loverboy didn't want to fuck her ugly Jewish ass once she was an old hag and started hooking up with some younger slut. Her and her followers are great examples of social defectives. Anybody arguing for this ideology is autistic or very young and selfish, it is not healthy.

Prose is mediocre, characters are flat, but I'm sure you knew this already.

Her philosophy, while interesting, is as stupid as socialism in practice. See Sears as an example of what will go wrong in such a society.

tl;dr-- managers started backstabbing each other to get ahead and only the most vicious and dishonest ended up on top. Objectivism rewards the worst parts of humanity.

Rational self interest ! It's not immoral because it's rational haha

mmm... yeah. prose & philosophy.

>>11459853
laughably bad
dont delude yourself into thinking otherwise

Is it your own failures that motivate you to beg for welfare and complain about the unfairness of a free, open market? Your intellectual weakness? Generally curious.

wild assumptions and mental shadowboxing is one thing that guy forgot to mention about the fans.

>>11460135
Ironic you mention welfare when it's well known rand was reliant on it later in her life

>>11460135
Lol

She is also dead, so I'm sure that's not her.

>shit
>trash

The prose while clumsy and over dramatic gets its job done.Her philosophy while i think really good in terms of an analysis of alot of parts of society and human nature,feels like a boiled down version of Nietzsche and a less radicl version of Stirner.

>dude if you're working three jobs fulltime and still poor it's totally your fault and not the result of a faulty societal structure/system, just go to college, it's only like 20,000 dollars just for the first year, then you can start a business on the "free" market and be happy unless you actually have success and then Apple or Google buy it

dude if i had three full time jobs i'd start buying houses with cash and then renting them out

>>11461774

except you would have bills, utilities, food, etc.

>>11461783
yeah but one job is more than enough to cover bills utilities and food, i cover all those right now and i only work like 20 hours a week max, if i worked 120 hours a week my portfolio would be swole the fuck out

>>11459853
Ayn Rand is a meme

I liked the intro when she namedrops Aristotle Hugo and Nietzsche. Her themes were ok. I liked especially the fuck the ignorant, dull and poor massess. They keep mankind behind.
