capitalism.org belongs to the randian loons.

I wont comment either way on the virtues or lack therof, but
capitalism.org is an Ayn Rand thing.

Having done a few philosophy units, I really think its prudent to note
that shes a pretty low class thinker imho.

Blah ad hominem etc.

take it with a grain of salt.
