no, it's not right.
the left hates ayn rand because the left hates ANyBODY who opposes their idiotic schemes and thinly veiled marxism.
talk to any old russian who lived under the soviet system and youll hear a completely different perspective on "The New Socialism" the left insists is totally different from Marxism
Ayn Rand saw the Glorious Bolshevik Revolution first hand, and as a result became a penniless landless refugee. since America is supposed to be a haven for refugees from political oppression, she came here.
she was "undocumented" for a year or two and then became a citizen.
she was never on welfare, she did NOT milk the system, and she did NOT hate illegal immigrants.
she hated MARXISTS.
Ayn Rad would be a footnote in history if her writings didnt chap leftist asses so bad. THEY are the ones who cant stop talking about how evil she was, which is a prime reason why here books still sell.
When anyone starts to notice the leftist lies, they look for a divergent opinion, and Rand is the first person on every leftist's list of The Enemy, so naturally her writings are a common first stop on the path to conservatism for those raised in leftist indoctrination (as i was).
curiously many Old School Republicans hated Rand almost as much as the Left does, as she opposes government power no matter who is tugging the strings.
go figure.
