ROTHBARDS clash with RAND

Came across an intresting rabbit hole of two writers I greatly admire.

It appears Murray Rothbard admired Atlas Shrugged and even titled it 'greatest novel ever", but afterwards Ayn Rand got corrupted by the power it gave her and Rothbard pointed that out.

"the guiding spirit of the

Randian movement was not individual liberty – as it seemed to many young members – but rather

personal power for Ayn Rand and her leading disciples"
