well we know she was a tool for the corporate whores... apparently she also advocated her followers to smoke up heavily... because it was so "enlightening"... she should have been puffing on some weed as opposed to nicotine... might have opened her mind up a bit and not been such a cold selfish douche

who died of lung cancer because she didn't believe the science that smoking is bad for one's health No. "Rand died of heart failure on March 6, 1982, at her home in New York City" en.wikipedia.org And yes smoking also contributes to heart problems, but if your going to attack someone (or in this case support someone else's attack) you should first get your facts correct. Not to mention that none of this says anything about her philosophical ideas. I don't support all of them, but her being a smoker is not an argument against them.
