I doubt you'll find many libertarians/objectivists who actually think that there is zero role for government. Of course we need roads serviced and a legal infrastructure to protect people from coercion. Those are things that can only really be done at a government level. Just because she doesn't focus on that in a book of fiction doesn't mean you should throw the baby out with the bathwater. the new internet sales tax is called the "Marketplace Fairness Act", for fucks sake, was that name lifted straight out of Atlas Shrugged? Governments are on the hook for outrageously expensive union pension funds that will cause economic collapse, but Ayn didn't mention snow plows in her book, so we should ignore everything she says about collectivism, unions and government cronyism?!? what a load of horseshit.
