I once asked a Randite about 'Objectivism.'
"If theft is theft, doesn't that mean we should hand all the land back to the Natives?"
The answer was NO, because the Native Amercans weren't using the land in the right way...
An argument that goes back to Hobbes (which doesn't make it right)
Didn't Rand say that all the old philosophers were crackpots?
Guess what: She's old now...

Died 1982.
Almost the same year as Hobbes (1679)
