Ayn Rand Interviews the Covid-19 Virus

It’s all about the Individual, Rright?

AR: You’re doing remarkably well nowadays I see. Shoot, I can’t even calculate your growth rate. What’s going on that makes you so successful?

C19: Thanks Ayn. It’s pretty simple. We have a superb product with an awesome payload. Lots of customer advocacy- people seem to pass it on to friends and family, even strangers. We’re spreading quickly. It’s really a freemium model which is working well for us. Simple to get but a big effect when you have it!

AR: What are your biggest markets?

C19: In a fast-moving scenario, it’s hard to predict. We started big in China and then weirdly enough got big in Iran and Italy. It’s just a matter of time before we are everywhere. We’re that good.

AR: How are you spreading so fast?

C19: Well, Ayn, we really loved your philosophy. We appeal to individual consumers and ask them to think about their own needs. Society puts so much pressure on the individual to act a certain way. We are helping them realize that they are empowered to do as they feel, to spread their own views. It’s democratization in action.

AR: What’s your biggest worry?

C19: Oh the usual anti-capitalist, communist, anti-market, interventionist stuff. Governments putting restrictions on consumers, mandates, and regulation. We’d never be able to spread so rapidly if Governments acted and people thought about the collective.
