Ayn Rand, Hugely Popular Author and Inspiration to Right-Wing Leaders, Was a Big Admirer of Serial Killer

I watched a video about Ayn Rand once.  Rand was a daughter of the Russian middle class, a virulent sexist and supporter of capitalism.  She has a bit of a cult following, even among some misguided workers and counts as one of her admirers, the discredited Alan Greenspan.  Someone who came to America in a first class cabin never really appealed to me as anything but an enemy of working class people though.

We don't make a habit of re-posting articles here but there is an interesting article about Rand here for those that want to take the time to read it.
