Never could get into Rand either (also disliked the Nietzsche Ubermensch tone)

Good points: "These modern day Silicon Valley Trumpist billionaires strike me as little more than overgrown boys, like Trump himself, still trapped in an adolescent’s distorted vision of manhood, but not actually having achieved that status either emotionally or intellectually. A bit like the Robber Barons of the Gilded Age, they are certain that they alone should be controlling the world but their vision is morally stunted"

M. and T. seem like spoiled little rich boys, all grown up? Did they never have to wash their Daddy's car? Never had to mow the lawn or shovel the driveway?
