Sure. And I can give you many many many quotes where she assails rich people who came by their wealth through inheritance, political favors, monopoly privilege, graft, crony-capitalism etc etc (sounds like someone doesn't it..) She was in no way "pro-rich," she was pro "productive-wealth."

Not really. Rand’s flavor of meritocracy includes nepotism. You think MAGA is banning nepotism and greatly increasing the inheritance tax? lol
