The Satanic Budget: Death To The Weakling (VIDEO)

A little over a week ago, Paul Ryan had to disavow his heroine, Ayn Rand, after his church—the Catholic Church—came down on him for espousing her philosophy. The truth is that Ayn Rand is the darling of the Republican Party and Ryan’s budget is based upon principles she has championed.

’ll be honest. Other than knowing the names of her books and the obvious conclusion one would come to upon reading the title The Virtue of Selfishness, I didn’t know a whole lot about her ideas and beliefs. So I did some research and even downloaded Anthem to my Kindle. It’s a short (100 pages in length) fable that shines a light on her beginnings in Russia and winds up encapsulating her philosophy. While doing my research, it struck me that a lot of what she had to say and a lot of what I’m hearing from the Right these days is eerily similar to another book I’ve had the occasion to research for my soon to be released novel CRAZY.

In the YouTube clip above, Rand states that if a person is weak, they are undeserving of love. In the book I used to research the character in my novel it states: Death to the weakling, wealth to the strong!

She actually had a crush on a murder who split a kids head open.

Anyone who believes her drivel is a psychopath wannabe.
