Ayn Rand also pushed the idea of "industrial capitalism" in age when all that shit was already firmly under the control of the (((banking elite))) funnily enough, she always attacked the idea of the state apparatus but I don't remember her ever talking a critical stance against centralized banking and this issuance of money is a means of political control. I guess she was backing the tribe all along Even worse, she took the idea of being against state power and turned it into a "live and let live" mentality. As has become obvious to anybody with a usable brain, when you take that position and your opposition takes the position of 'use the state to enforce my will' you will always lose and be crushed under a political power you were busy trying to pretend didn't exist.
