Time to play devil's advocate here, at least a tiny bit. :/
Presumably, objectivism is mostly about removing morality and censorship, in order for artists and scientists to thrive freely, taking society to new heights.
Bioshock is a game that explores this philosophy very well and if you haven't played it yet, make sure to do so.

Because it's obviously in her best self interest.

No, it wouldn't. There is a difference between giving or installing such a thing and taking it when it's handed to you. It would make you an idiot to not accept the 1000 $.
And the part you quoted, if anything, argues against hypocrisy and inconsistency from her part. She says that anyone who is against these systems needs to take back the money that was stolen from him.
Of course that position is idiotic. Meatism teaches us to always act selfishly, so the weak and old and sick shall try to get as much from the social systems as possible while the ones paying for them need to refuse and let the weak die.

Got it. Note to self: Blurt out nonsense, then use handle's fantasy persona to create plausible deniability for said previous foolish ramblings.

it's funny how much shock you can cause when you shout out "YOU ****" in the streets.
