Politically, I think take 80% of her ideas and run a nation on it, and you have the best nation ever. Leave the more out there 20% as an artist that didn't spend a ton of time in the real world. That last 20% can be disregarded, but the 80% is so on point, I vote for anyone that has an objectivist background.
What books do you read Mr. Janx? And mind you that currently I am reading "Meditations" by Marcus Aurelius. Of course, maybe I'm completely lying about ever having read anything, as that last guy accused.
I'm going deep into stoicsm with this Aurelius. I still think Jesus has all these other philosophies beat though.
