Default Re: Mises and \"New Atheism\"

Misfire,

obviously, I am not making an argument. I am asserting that Ayn Rand was not a philosopher.

1. She is not smart.
2. NOTHING she wrote was original
3. She fundamentally misunderstood Kant, Nietzsche, and others.
4. She had a poor knowledge of philosophy, history, economics, and politics, but proclaimed herself an authority on all those subjects.
5. Her literary style is god awful. There are NO serious literatry critics who would give a positive review of any of her works.

etc etc etc
