Mr.davidngo4415 is right on this one, too.
):and doesn't merit all of the thumbs down:(

If one stops to analyse this scenario correctly, it comes down to cause and effect.

*Reason magazine* had everything to gain by hijacking Miss Rand's name and image for a cause that She emphatically stated as incompatible with Her Philosophy of Objectivism. This is the unfortunate anti-intellectual trap that this faction uses to gain popularity...

...and also why the Galt's Gulch refuge is closed to them.

Honey - she's essentially the founder of the Libertarian movement and an extremely important thinker and champion of freedom. Reason has done a few videos in a series on Rand recently due to the anniversary of 'Atlas Shrugged'.

The founder of Libertarianism? Not really. Objectivism yes (obviously) but not Libertarianism. Hell, Adam Smith and Thomas Paine supported Libertarian ideals (back then it was called Liberalism though) a good 150 years before Rand.

Again, I acknowledge he importance, and I do like her a fair bit, but it just seems like everything in Reason has been on Rand lately.

Yes, I should have said modern libertarianism. Anyway, I didn't mean to infer that she's the only inspiration for the movement. And Reason is commemorating 'Atlas' I believe. Take Care.

Oh, is it an anniversary type thing? That makes sense then.

It's a timely tribute thing. They're doing videos about Rand all this month. Many 20th-century libertarians were influenced by Rand, and since Atlas Shrugged is selling so well lately and since there are two new biographies about the woman, why not make the most of it?
