Is Atlas Shrugging ???

According to this essay, the US government is doing all the WRONG things mentioned in Ayn Rand's novel Atlas Shrugged:

I have read all her novels, and I used to believe her crap. But I'm here to tell you that all such contemporaneous comparisons leave out a very important thing:

WE GOT TO THE MESS WE'RE IN BY FOLLOWING THE ADVICE SHE GAVE IN HER BOOK !!!

Ayn Rand's "philosophy" profoundly influenced the Chicago School of Economics and the Federal Reserve System tenure of Alan Greenspan, who LITERALLY was one of Rand's disciples. And the nonsense which vomited out of her "philosophy" gutted the US economy and destroyed our reserve capacity to do just about anything. In short, her ideas DESTROYED America.

My recommendation? Any time you hear someone extolling the wondrous ideas of Ayn Rand, know that person to be an enemy of We the People and a shill for the rich bastards who are now lounging on their yachts or in their doomsday bunkers paid for by the looting of the American people.
