Unfortunately, my copy of _Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal_ is in storage at
the moment (along with most of my political and economic library), but I'll
search my much-worn edition of _Atlas_ tonight.

I'll be glad to attempt to find the quote... Remind me tommorow if you
don't see it. Grab your copy of "Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal" I
think it's either in the first essay or in one of the appendices.
I think she also mentions that the idea of society is nonsense in
Atlas Shrugged.
I will endeavor to find the exact quote and post it.
