I'll be glad to attempt to find the quote... Remind me tommorow if you don't see it. Grab your copy of "Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal" I think it's either in the first essay or in one of the appendices.
I think she also mentions that the idea of society is nonsense in Atlas Shrugged.
I will endeavor to find the exact quote and post it.
