Anyone who considers Ayn Rand or Objectivism "Leftist" is a moron.The morals she espouses are definately leftist--do whatever you want with whomever you want. Her economics are clearly not.

[Rand says] do whatever you want with whomever you want..
A sweeping generalization if ever there was one.
"Ethics is not a mystic fantasy - nor a social convention - nor a dispensable, subjective luxury... Ethics is an objective necessity of man's survival - not by grace of the supernatural nor of your neighbors nor of your whims, but by the grace of reality and the nature of life."

The Objectivist ethics proudly advocates and upholds rational selfishness ..not the values produced by the desires, the emotions, the "aspirations," the feelings, the whims or the needs of irrational brutes, who have never outgrown the primordial practice of human sacrifices...
