      Didn’t realise Ayn Rand dabbled in writing textbooks.

      I have a certain morbid curiosity to see the rest of the chapter.

    Capitalism is the dictatorship of the proletariat? Deez nuts are the means of production. Owned, Tongeez! Sluva Ukreenie!

    I also heard Charles Mark last week say that in order for communism to succeed the means of production would have to be siezed by the booger-gee. Otherwise the proleterryate would end up with all the money. Then he went off and killed 67 gorbillion people with his bare hands and took my stuff.

    It would be correct if it said bourgeoisie there, right?

    I’m sort of wondering if it was a genuine mistake on the part of the textbook authors.

      It could be a genuine mistake by the original writer, but I expect a textbook to have higher proofreading standards. Especially if this is a grade-school textbook (it looks like one), where you can’t reasonably expect the student to reference other sources to verify the contents, then I would expect the textbook publisher to put a lot more effort in to catching this sort of thing. And I don’t mean someone reading over it for typos, I mean someone who knows the field the book is written about, who can proofread for accuracy not just grammar. Genuine mistake or not, this is completely inexcusable.
