Cunningham also shows how right-wing conservatives, libertarians, and the Tea Party movement have co-opted Rand's teachings (and inherent contradictions) to promote personal gain and profit at the expense of the middle class 600 14 Rand, Ayn / Comic books, strips, etc 650 4 Economics / Moral and ethical aspects / Comic books, strips, etc 650 4 Global Financial Crisis, 2008-2009 650 4 Objectivism (Philosophy) / Comic books, strips, etc 650 4 Selfishness / Comic books, strips, etc 655 7 Tecknade serier|2saogf 907 00 180602
