I keep saying that George Orwell was a prophet.
Who knew that “1984” and “Atlas Shrugged” (Rand) would become government policy manuals?

If they're reading Atlas Shrugs, they're skipping entire chapters, and not finishing the book.

As long as we have The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress (Heinlein) We the People have something like our own blueprint for turning it around.

I agree with you, but Orwell did base 1984 on actual government policy (in the USSR). Orwell's insight was that totalitarianism could spread worldwide, and he understood, and explained unambiguously, how it worked (at a time when, for example, the New York Times was publishing paeans to Stalin).
