Across various jurisdictions, the creation of political parties founded on freedom\/capitalism suggests an awakening to the fundamentals underlying our political crisis.<\/strong> Most interestingly, many of these parties (including the American Capitalist Party) have cited the \u2018Objectivist\u2019 philosophy of Ayn Rand as a guiding light in the establishment of their own party policies.<\/p>\n

However as one might expect, even among those inspired by Rand’s philosophy, disagreements and various interpretations of her ideas abound. Happily, these conflicting opinions actually provide a much-needed discussion<\/strong> of the principles and forces that drive our political zeitgeist. <\/p>\n

In America as in Canada, there are a growing number of political parties seen to be on the \u2018freedom\u2019 side of the political polarity. Among them: various independent and libertarian parties in both countries, Ontario’s Freedom Party, Canada’s People’s Party, and of course, the American Capitalist Party.<\/p>\n

\u201cLibertarians reject an objective (universal) morality,\u201d argues Mark, in citing how the American Capitalist Party differs from various libertarian parties.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the end, which of these parties ever wins an election will depend less on their policies and platforms being Just Right, than on a majority of the voting public believing them to be right enough to support at the polls.<\/p>\n
