The morality of Capitalism
What distinguishes Ayn Rand from Adam Smith and other proponants of capitalism is the fact that Ayn Rand set the moral foundation that capitalism has long needed. The reason that, capitalism as a social system -has constantly lost the battle to socialism, was due to the guilt that has been so readily accepted by the producer(the movers of the world). Ayn Rand points...

Hasn't Rand read the Wealth of Nations?
In her work, What is Capitalism? Rand tries to pass of as "objectivist" an explanation of capitalism that has existed since 1776--in Smith's The Weath of Nations. Having been from Russia, im sure capitalism seems very new, logical and exciting to Rand--alas, her definition of capitalism is not very insightful to those who have read The Weath of Nation or have...

The morality of Capitalism,
By
This review is from: What Is Capitalism (Audio Cassette)
What distinguishes Ayn Rand from Adam Smith and other proponants of capitalism is the fact that Ayn Rand set the moral foundation that capitalism has long needed. The reason that, capitalism as a social system -has constantly lost the battle to socialism, was due to the guilt that has been so readily accepted by the producer(the movers of the world). Ayn Rand points this out and proposes a powerful solution. I strongly recommend this work to any one that would like to see the world more clearly

Hasn't Rand read the Wealth of Nations?,
By A Customer
This review is from: What Is Capitalism (Audio Cassette)
In her work, What is Capitalism? Rand tries to pass of as "objectivist" an explanation of capitalism that has existed since 1776--in Smith's The Weath of Nations. Having been from Russia, im sure capitalism seems very new, logical and exciting to Rand--alas, her definition of capitalism is not very insightful to those who have read The Weath of Nation or have taken Econ 101. The work is merely a more sophisticated version of Rush Limbaugh's explaination of capitalism in his books: The Way Things Ought to Be, and See, I Told You So. I Suggest this book to high school students who are too busy to read The Weath of Nations, but not to those who already possess a deeper understanding of what capitalism is (you dont want to waste your time).
