This week marks 100 years since Ayn Rand immigrated to America.
To commemorate it, @brandonmlisi and I did something that's never been done before: We're telling Rand's story focusing on her immigration journey and life as a newcomer in America.
![the antitrust laws. These have contributed the most to the destruction of free enterprise. And the first antitrust laws to go-and they should go overnight-are the jail penalty provisions. Stop sending men to jail for undefined offenses that they have no way of avoid-ing. Once you remove the cancer of antitrust legislation, the others become easier to remove. Once you free the most essential and productive group of our society—namely, the businessmen—many of our economic problems will vanish. One would probably have to combine such decontrol with a tax-reduction law, otherwise you would be leaving society in an unbalanced condition: large companies have an advantage over competitors who never had a chance to rise because their earnings were undercut by taxes to such an extent that they could not compete with big companies who were established before today's tax rates went into effect.
