Puh-leeze.
I like how "libertarians" want to have their cake (opposition to the concept of "illegal" immigration") and eat it too (opposition to Ayn Rand choosing to live in the U.S., because, you know, she's Ayn Rand).

It's a good thing that she came here illegally, and helped make the labor market more efficient, as the video points out.
Think of how much a copy Atlas Shrugged would cost, if Ayn Rand were not a wetback!
I don't like to imagine Ayn wet.
I think your comment ranks amongst the very bestest crackpot Ayn Rand comments in the ward.
