In the second photo up there is a hand with a small sign,
“Who is John Galt?” Do you know to whom that refers?

IIRC John Galt is a fictional character in a book called Atlas Shrugged. In the book, he leads a movement of the last few remaining productive people in the world to go on strike to cause the system to collapse. The idea is that at some point people will be so overtaxed to pay for all the government programs that one day they will rise up and say-ENOUGH!
