You may be right about the author’s point - and the author may be right about the ultimate conclusion. If so, he should wrap himself in Rand and not in the Founders. The Founders would not agree with him. Again, they warned against attempts at perfection. They understood the inherent flaws.
And another thing: for folks who are say, 65 or 75 years old, I would suspect they would put a big value on “slowing it down.”
