She was a champion, the best of the best really, of Capitalism. Her ideas on morality included the absence of a middle position because of course, there is no middle between Right and Wrong. If something is half right it’s not right so it’s at best half wrong which is to say, .. WRONG!

But most people accept both Reality and Fantasy, Mysticism and/or The Supernatural as well as Reality so they are confused, conflicted and therefore unable to find the truth of the basis of a moral position. Not Rand. She was absolute in her defense of Capitalism and it’s moral opposite, Altruism. The moral problem is that most people accept Reality as well as Mysticism. You can easily spot them by asking about how the universe came about. Their answers will reveal various degrees of Reality and Mysticism which means they do not grasp Reality. They are partly sure but their idea that there is a Creator, God actually betrays their Mysticism.
