Are Capitalism, Objectivism, and Libertarianism Religions? Yes!

Are Capitalism, Objectivism, and Libertarianism Religions? Yes!

ByDr Albert Ellis

Dr. Albert Ellis thoroughly debunks Capitalism, Objectivism, and Libertarianism as espoused by Adam Smith, The Wall Street Journal, The Economist, Alan Greenspan and his mentor Ayn Rand. This brilliant foray into politics and psychology examines the major tenets of capitalism, objectivism and libertarianism. Dr. Albert Ellis explores these philosophies to unravel their basic premises, and show how ultimately they are not rational, but religious in nature. Dr. Ellis writes, “On the surface, Ayn Rand makes excellent points about humans and their potential for rational behavior. Unfortunately, she postulates on individual and social psychology in such an extremist, fanatical, dogmatic, high-flown moralistic and irrational manner as to destroy much of its sense and effectiveness.” Former president of the Albert Ellis Institute in New York, the author of the book, Dr. Ellis, is the founder of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), the first of the Cognitive Behavior Therapies.
