Atlas Begs To Differ: Why It's a Mistake to Believe in Ayn Rand

NEW: UPDATED WITH AN ADDED SECTION OF 56 NUMBERED OBJECTIONS TO OBJECTIVISM

A searing indictment of Ayn Rand's teachings and philosophy. If you were ever captivated by Atlas Shrugged, Charles Hayes will challenge you to wonder why. He has no patience with Objectivists and stridently spells out here why Objectivism is anything but objective. Taking special note of some of Rand's followers, including Congressman Paul Ryan and former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, Hayes explains why viewing government as evil is shortsighted and why capitalism without regard for consequences is cancerous. As Atlas Begs To Differ makes clear, the economic collapse in America is ample evidence of what can go wrong when profit is the only thing that matters. (16,983 words)
