I had to giggle at that first sentence. Rand would have been proud!

I’ve posted this before. It’s 1 of 5 parts of Rand’s interview with Phil Donahue when she was an old woman already, just after her husband’s death. She initially comes across to the audience as a cute old lady until they end up gasping in horror at her ideas about what we should do to the poor and invalid.

I saw that exact interview in 11th grade philosophy class. I agree with your take on it. It was funny though as I say since we had many conservatives in that class who loved her. I know that they were conservatives since when we discussed bio-ethics (euthanasia, abortion, and stuff later) they were dramatically opposed.
