LATEST POLL: ATLAS SHRUGGED READ BY 8.1%

You are clearly WAY oversampling Republicans.

[ReeseBN38416]

This figure doesn't surprise me if it means that 8.1% have actually read the book cover to cover. I'll bet the percentage of people that started it but never finished is quite a bit higher.

According to a poll jointly conducted by the Library of Congress and the Book of the Month Club some years ago, Atlas Shrugged is the second most influential book after the Bible. Some of the people whose opinions I most respect list it as one of the books that had the greatest influence on them, among them Rush Limbaugh.

Dont believe it. I work with 40 professionals (sales) more then half have a degree and not one has read Atlas Shrugged.
Well Ive read it twice.

[Revolting cat!]

No wonder. Bombastic prose is unreadable!

I’m halfway through it, and I’m just floored. I feel like I have a much clearer, deeper understanding of the nature of liberalism, the mindset that creates it, and the evil it represents. I’m beginning to believe that the best service we could do would be to give a copy to at least one friend.
