Lars P. Syll’s — Foot-in-mouth disease — Ayn Rand and Alan Greenspan


The ironic thing is that Sitting Bull is an icon of the freedom that Ayn Rand and  her fanboy Alan Greenspan only fantasized about and the people that they believed to be capable of assuming that mantle could not when entrusted with the global economy. As Greenspan later admitted, they didn't have the right stuff. And he didn't either as chief regulator responsible for preserving and ensuring the stability of the financial order and banking system. Ayn Rand calling real men like Sitting Bull "savages" is way beyond moronic. And they were also much better philosophers than she aspired to be but never made the grade.
