Ayn Rand Was Right On At Least One Thing

Common Sense Commentary: The political and financial mess our country is now in,  is the sort of genius that springs from the rotten core of a body of no-gooder do-gooder bureaucrats whose sole function is to impede the market and control every jot and tittle of all of our lives. It is the embodiment of Ayn Rand's famous quote:

"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."  Ayn Rand, 1905-1982
