From what I have observed, Objectivism's problems lie in the fact that its "me" message is inherently attractive to people who probably need psychiatric treatment for their tendencies which trend towards sociopathy.

Most people who buy into Rand's philosophy essentially buy into this message, it is rather pointless to try to debate the more subtle points of her philosophy with them.

IMHO, human society is neither about collectivism or individualism but a dynamic balance of the two.
