You did NOT get that from Ayn Rand! Read "The Role of Government" in "Capitalism:The Unknown Ideal".
It is because all men are not rational that governments are necessary. If they are utilized
consistent with the rights of the individuals they serve, they are not enemies, but benefactors of free men.
