Maybe it’s time for Atlas to do more than shrug! Is it time for the top tax-paying Americans to strike?

A nationwide strike is exactly what is needed to get the point across!

TPTB are blinded by their own ideology.
They pay no attention to the ‘tea parties’, or the capital strikes ($8T private funds), investors strike, bankers strike, etc.
They call it ‘fear’. I call it ‘anger’.
They ain’t seen nothing yet! When the growth doesn’t appear they’ll just try harder. That’s why we have to be visible!
Carl Icahn said if Obama’s plans were more taxation, he would strike. He said it would only take 2 years. I think it will take longer.

My sister-in-law is a very sweet person, but has never had the desire to hold a full-time job. She takes government funded training as a condition to continue her payments, but refuses to turn the skills thus required into actual work. Her reasoning: she is a widow with dependent children. She is also an expert in the various government programs. By the time the costs of working are deducted, living off the government pays better for her situation.

Still, she has enough sense to vote Republican because she understands the economy for people like her will always be better long term when the adults are in charge. I once suggested to her that with her expertise on the various government programs, she could make a good living steering people on how to get their share.

She looked at me like I was crazy and said "there's no market for that when the experts are already working for the government and giving away this advice for free."

It's not just the top tax payers who should go Galt; It's the middle and lower payers too. Once the looters aren't getting enough from the high end; they'll turn their attention on the lower ranks to supplement falling revenues.

Which leads to my tag line:
