This reminds me of the following quote

"When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you - When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - You may know that your society is doomed." ― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

I'll point out that a lot of the current administration and Republican Congress that enables the current administration are Ayn Rand fans.

They cherry pick and choose the parts of her work that fits their agenda, while forgetting the other parts.

Of course. No true Scotsman would ever do such a thing.
