I know this is rather tangential to the thread but I suggest to FReepers to watch the movie, “The Fountainhead,” which is based on the book of the same name by Ayn Rand that was published in 1943. It is about the triumph of the individual over collectivism. I just finished watching it on GoogTube and that it was excellent especially at this time period in our country.

It is the Conservatives who are the real individuals who are standing up to the Leftists (aka collectivists) on both sides of the political aisle in this struggle for control of America.

The movie is broken up into 12 ten minute sections.

Your posting this is rather remarkable. I just finished re-reading "The Fountainhead" two nights ago and returned it to library yesterday. GMTA, eh?

I'm likely in the minority here but I actually found it to be a more engaging story than "Atlas Shrugged". I hope that opinion doesn't enrage the Viking Kitties. :-)
