Re: Ayn Rand on Christmas

Matthew , the greatest part about that Rand quote is how it shows how Randians and Keynsians basically agree in endorsing the central fallacy of twentieth-century economics: that the core drive of economic activity is the desire to consume, to gratify desires.

She even praises Christmas because it’s a “stimulus”! Leave it to Christianity to come up with the one thing Ayn Rand and John Maynard Keynes can agree is good. There is no Jew or Greek, no bond or free, no maker or taker, for we are all one in Christ Jesus.
