One of the primary criticisms of Atlas Shrugged is that the villains are so moustache-twistingly farcical in their incompetence and greed that all the workers of the world are morally justified in going on strike, killing most everyone.
The book is full of what I thought were ridiculous strawman stories like what happened to the Japan delegation.
True anarchocapitalism is when the free market has you hammer a girder hard enough to become an unassailable steelman.
Well, also that the workers of the world are the villains.
