Shrug

I’m current re-reading Atlas Shrugged. Well, slogging through it is probably more accurate. While I have great respect for Ayn Rand and her pro-capitalist philosophy, she is a very verbose writer, and uses far more words than necessary to make her point.

However, I’m wondering why I’m reading Atlas Shrugged because we’re currently living it. Given the gross mismanagement of the economy by our not-so-esteemed government, it’s only a matter of time before we start looking for Galt’s Gulch.

    It’s funny that libertarians all read Atlas Shrugged and worship Ayn Rand. Rand described libertarians as hippies and thought you were all douchebags.
