Ayn Rand on Donahue in 1979. The first 15 minutes or so, she talks about the oil crisis and free markets and monopolies.

I was stunned by how little has changed.

The host seems to want government to attempt to control prices.

This crazy old lady smacks him down with rejoinders like, "all monopolies are created by special privilege of government", and "every dictatorship is based on altruism".

If she was alive today, she'd be rolling over in her grave.

Edit- Phil was speaking hypothetically about $2.50 a gallon gasoline.
