Ayn Rand has worse ideas but did less with them

During their lifetimes, Thatcher was far worse. But over time, the people influenced by Rand's work have collectively surpassed the evils of The Iron Lady. But I think that's giving Rand too much credit, as some other libertarian figurehead would have arisen for them to model their worldviews on.

The plot is so poorly written that it requires multiple kinds of science magic to be invented (perpetual motion machines, magic metal) for the bazinga rich asshole utopia to be tenable even in the fiction.
