You mentioned that Ayn Rand’s books outsell Karl Marx’s 16-fold, a fact that must be “gratifying” to fans of the strident critic of government intervention (“Who’s shrugging now?”, October 20th). That is an apples and oranges comparison. One reason for the disparity is that Marx’s writings are available free online, whereas Rand’s works still enjoy copyright protection and cannot be legally reproduced by any but the rights holder.
