I really wish I knew Rothbard, at times I wondered if he was a bit extreme but when I see stuff like this it reinforces that he wasn't.
He's right, Atlas Shrugged was/is a great way for people to be exposed to some libertarian thought...yes-it's not perfect, yes-it's got a cult following attached to it, but setting aside the imperfections it still remains a unique and interesting way to communicate some of the fundamental ideals surrounding libertarian thought.
