The closest comparison I can make is Mary Sue-eriffic fanfiction. And I can deal with fanfiction better than with Rand's writing. Her characters are all so incredibly disgusting that I couldn't finish the book. And they're disgusting because of their abhorrent philosophy.

...I have forceful opinions about that woman.

There are many, many libertarians who do not accept her beliefs. She was extremely libertarian. *NM*
