A great video of Ayn Rand speaking about the harm from government interference in the economy, and the benefits of the free market.

    Excellent video. ayn Rand was correct in her assessment what was happening in her time and the same government control still exists today, ie, the Congress and the bureaucratic swamp. Also, in the states that are run by Dem governors. This scenario can't go on indefinitely. Some of the US industries are to blame in the current crisis having their manufacturing done in China because of cheap labor and incentives by the CCP. They sold their souls to the CCP, the corporations intellectual property.

    Darn, now I'm going to have to read Atlas Shrugged again. I even have a file on my computer that is nothing but video of Ayn Rand. Maybe I watch it all again this week. This one I had not seen before but have already added it.

    Thank you for an excellent post. At that time most of this abuse was created by politicians. I think now a larger amount of blame needs to assigned to these fake capitalists who are a part of these schemes.

    Politics, Politicians, and non conscious parasitical humanoids are what has poisoned our Capitalism.

    Very timely post, considering the amount of control all levels of government are taking in our economy present day.

    I doubt whether any of the dunces in Washington D.C. have watched this video or would care to do so. As Ayn Rand wrote in The Fountainhead “The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody has decided not to see.”
    It requires an enormous effort to deny the truth spoken in this video.
