| − | Ayn Rand was also a great fan of laissez-faire capitalism, believing it to be the necessary society in which man, the individual man of purpose and dedication, can achieve his greatest work. That is, the man unfettered by rules, procedures, bureaucracy and committees interjecting themselves into his work. When an artist creates a great sculpture, an author an amazing novel, an architect a beautiful building, they do so neither by forming a committee, taking a vote, nor reaching consensus. Ayn Rand's viewpoint was that each person must live free from these sorts of restrictions, free to create works of art. Ayn felt that whenever an outside agency interferes in the art process, the result is an ugly piece of work, not a beautiful one. | + | Ayn Rand was also a great fan of laissez-faire capitalism, believing it to be the necessary society in which man, the individual man of purpose and dedication, can achieve his greatest work.
