she blew him away though was when, among other things, she claimed that if capitalism meant a free market, and since the real market, at least in the way that Ayn Rand meant it, was neither a market, nor free, we therefore lived in a capitalist society only in name. โ€œHold on, this reminds me a bit of the USSR that wasnโ€™t united, soviet, socialist, or even democrat-ic,โ€ he couldnโ€™t help himself but commenting, hav-ing up to that moment chosen to keep mum. โ€œOk, but following that logicโ€ โ€“ he really went in on her now, completely disregarding the fact he would, that way, possibly lose her favour altogether โ€“ โ€œwe canโ€™t get far. Because, eventually, your faith in Randโ€™s theory ends up much like that of left-wings in Marxism since, no matter what, both are in the clear, with the argument that up to now both theories had never been applied to the letter but only as a misprint, Capitalism being a fake and Socialism a monstrosity. So then, hypo-thetically the former is as much a far cry from what Ayn Rand envisioned, as the latter was from a com-munist manifesto.

Do you doubt that itโ€™s compatible with human nature, whereas Social-ism a completely alien concept to it? Because for me thatโ€™s where the essence of it all is and everything else is nothing but hot airโ€ she said, positive that she was going to have him eat his words. What โ€“ as everything indicated โ€“ was a habit of her, apart from interrupt-ing him mid-sentence, to skim over his arguments or judge whether he was right or not on the basis of those alone, had already started โ€“ he would analyse in retro-spect โ€“ to get on his nerves. Even more than her opin-ions, what really drove him crazy, was her certainty that they were the only valid ones.
