Ayn Rand's feel good philosophy of "Objectivism"

Ayn Rand has been popular in the US for nearly a century or so, now, largely on the basis of her advocacy of free market Capitalism as the most perfect incarnation of a truly rational and effective moral approach to existence as a whole. Having experienced the horrors of the Soviet Union first hand, she, quite reasonably, decided to escape to the US, and did quite a good job in doing so! She found in the US, that merely working odd jobs as a film extra was sufficient to maintain not too bad an existence, paradise compared to life in the USSR. And, she picked up a good sense of public relations from these experiences, sufficient to know how to attract attention, and ever acquire a certain degree of power, simply by telling people what they wanted to hear. Ayn Rand's "philosophy", if that is the word for it, is little more than prosaic, at length expostulations of American Optimism. She seems to be presenting popular songs like "Happy Days are here Again" and "Blue Skies, smiling at me" in extended philosophical form. While her criticisms of the brutality and arbitrariness of many Marxist regimes are reasonable enough, she makes the rather obvious error of equating all other philosophical systems -- Platonism, Christianity, Utilitarianism, even Nietzsche -- with them, only excepting her own rather vague pronouncements from this global condemnation of the philosophical field of ethics, as a whole. Ayn Rand seems to feel that merely repeating "rational" and "objective" over and over again, are sufficient to prove that she is, herself, being rational, and objective. I'm afraid, it doesn't quite work that way! Other than being told repeatedly how perfect and wonderful capitalism is, we really don't get much at all of a sense of reality from Ayn Rand, I do much fear me! https://courses.aynrand.org/works/the-objectivist-ethics/
