I don’t agree with Rand on all things, but I think her book would be an excellent read.

Of course, she did *not* anticipate that the next FDR would be equipped the ability to make any dissenter into a “unlawful enemy combatant” just by saying he is, or with a concentration camp in Cuba for dissenters, or with the Patriot Act to strip away the rule of law, or with the Military Commissions act to authorize torture.

I think our future will be much darker than what she wrote.
