I've already been over the conflict between reality and the idea that authoritarianism is primarily a conservative phenomenon. "Turn it all over to the government" is something you hear a lot more from your side than mine, and as I've also pointed out in the past, when someone is telling me how to run my life or business, odds are damn good it's a liberal.
Besides the people who wrote those theories, you may be the only one buying it.
The entire U.S. government operates on "compromise." Arriving at deals between opposing views is pretty much all Congress does, but most people don't see the sausage being made in the headlines. I use the term in quotes because basic principles (other than what would get someone re-elected) rarely come into it.
You can't compromise on basic principles. The only one who wins then are those who don't have any. This happens a lot.
From Ayn Rand's "The Anatomy of Compromise" (italics in original):
1. In any conflict between two men (or two groups) who hold the same basic principles, it is the more consistent one who wins.
2. In any collaboration between two men (or two groups) who hold different basic principles, it is the more evil or irrational one who wins.
3. When opposite basic principles are clearly and openly defined, it works to the advantage of the rational side; when they are not clearly defined, but are hidden or evaded, it works to the advantage of the irrational side.
Your toymaker example showed a valid form of compromise. Both parties have the same basic principles. They believe in the value of the product, the right of the maker to profit, and the concept of voluntary trade.
When someone comes up to the toymaker and demands that he can take the toys for free, simply because he has no toys, there is no real compromise possible. If the toymaker turns over half his toys instead of all of them, under threat, some people might call that a "compromise." It isn't.
Reality and facts do exist. Someone telling you that even these are subject to "compromise" is usually trying to sell you something you really don't want. See number 3 above.
