Yes, I realize that righties idolize a writer whose ideal man and hero was a sociopath who kidnapped and butchered a little girl.
I'm not sure what book you read, but obviously not Atlas Shrugged. That's OK, very few of the most vocal critics of the book have either. Maybe they need to make a "graphic novel" version for those with poor reading comprehension.

A "graphic novel" version is about right for that so-called work.
“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged . One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”
― John Rogers
That's true. From the other side, I think people are safe to sleep in the bed without fear that the little book will baptise them in their sleep.
Actually, I was staying in a hotel with my school age sons. My sons found the bible in the nightstand drawer and looked through it. When they started laughing uncontrollably, I looked at what they were reading. They were reading Isaiah chapters 20 and 21 which had something to do with this:
God tells Isaiah to take off all his clothes and to wander about completely naked for three years as a "sign and a wonder." In this way he will be just like the Egyptian captives who will walk about naked "with their buttocks uncovered." 20:2-5
While walking around naked for three years, Isaiah's loins were filled with pain. 21:3
As a parent, I am not thrilled about books like this placed freely where children can find them.

They don't belong in a public setting unless a private individual brought one. You Christian nuts would have a cow if a motel owned by Muslims put in Korans, but you will not just admit your biased and want to destroy all other religions but yours, and when you have all other religions destroyed you would start to attack the fringe groups who believe in the bible but not your brand. Many of you nuts would first start with the Mormons, and Jehovahs Witnesss [I hate both these nut bar religions] Then move on to the more traditional ones like the Baptist attacking the Catholics. Your just nuts and as crazy as the Islam nuts who want all other religions banned.

We sure wouldn't want one belief to go attacking another would we?

What on earth are you babbling about? Of course I read Atlas Shrugged. My point is that I'm not going to take the ravings of a lunatic as gospel.
I see you know nothing about the author.

Really. We should just give them graphic sex ed coloring books and condoms like them smart progressive states.
Why do myth books need to be in colleges or hotels. I don't get it. If you like myths and fables, bring your own books.
