No! You are John Galt. I am John Galt. That’s the point. When you get to the point where you realize that your productivity is used for the benefit of those who do not, cannot, and are contemptuous of those who produce - you shrug.
That is what we are seeing right now, regardless if those shrugging are familiar with Rand. They realize that there is a paradigm shift in the relationship between the citizen and its government. This country runs not on the spectacular profits of the ExxonMobils of the world, but upon the workaday electricians, carpenters, landscapers, mechanics. When they see what is going on in Washington, and believe me they know what the term trillion means, they are going to vote with their wallets. Look for tax receipts to plummet to unimaginably low amounts.
Well said.
You got it. Hence the flailing and flopping in DC. The total corruption is showing and the natives are restless. Look for the signs...Out with illegal aliens. Cut off welfare. Lay off government goons. Hopefully the lack of funding will topple the socialist programs that only survive on a healthy host. A silver lining in the dark cloud.
Bravo! Your post should be read by all!
The question 'where is John Galt' is different than "who is John Galt'. The first implies that there is someone to come to ones rescue, the latter makes you look within for the answer. Again (standing up and clapping) BRAVO !!!
