The Ayn Rand Institute, named for conservative philosopher Ayn Rand, received a [COVID relief] loan of between $350,000 and $1 million, which it called “partial restitution for government-inflicted losses."
“It would be a terrible injustice for pro-capitalists to step aside and leave the funds to those indifferent or actively hostile to capitalism ,” Ayn Rand Institute board member Harry Binswanger argued in May, stating that the organization would “take any relief money offered us.”
