Koan had a very emotional reaction when I posted 2 Ayn Rand quotes. I asked after: "Do you disagree with the content of the quote? If so please advise where you disagree. I'm curious to know why you had such an emotional reaction."

Koan was so overcome with loathing he could not respond and suffered a kind of swoon followed by a knee-jerk attack.

God Bless Ayn Rand.

' they ' found out who he is, and wet-work off-ed him, so the theory goes, and

If so, then Trump better hope he loses.....and those FBI agents better keep their mouths shut...

An FBI agent believed to be responsible for the latest email leaks “pertinent to the investigation” into Hillary Clinton’s private email server while she was Secretary of State, was found dead in an apparent murder-suicide early Saturday morning, according to police.

Ayn Rand was a hard core sociopath and led a cult. She called the workers vermin and she made one of the cult members, a young man, convince his wife that he should sleep with her because she wanted him to. She was like 20 years his senior, and that went on for years. She was a person who railed against social programs, like Medicare and Social Security and yet at the end of her life was using both of them. She was a hypocrite and altogether horrible person. She was also a speed freak.

And her objectivist philosophy is nuts. There is no real objectivity possible. Her biographers paint a picture of a horrible person.

"here are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

It's just that I agree on a few more things with him than with Hillary the Harpy. But he's far from Libertarian in his ideology. Yay Ayn Rand [from what I've read of her stuff, she mostly agreed with me].
