Thanks – a very interesting article. I’m
surprised at how vehemently Chomsky shrugs her off as evil. He doesn’t give
any explanation in the article; do you have any information about WHY he thinks
Rand is evil?
He also summarily lumps Hayek in the same
paragraph with Rand. That is also a surprise
to me. Too bad the article is so short. I would like to have understood his
objection to Hayek as well.

Chomsky is one of my favorite thinkers,
Mine too, he's one of the true geniuses of the 20th century. I'm
especially fond of his bang-on assessment of Ayn Rand: "Rand in my view is one of the most evil figures of modern
intellectual history." (http://goo.gl/vY47p)
