Default Ayn Rand was an optimist

Reading the rants by the loony left in this forum reminds me of Ayn Rand's
work "Atlas Shrugged". The loonies in that book were anti-capitalism, pro
confiscatory taxes, anti-intellectual, pro welfare on a massive scale, and
deniers of the work ethic. The people who built this country finally went
on strike, refusing to go along with the government "czars" and ridiculous
edicts.

She was amazingly prophetic. It's time for another shrug.

BTW, before bpuharic ) chimes in with another inane ad
hominem response about right-wingers, I disagreed with them also when they
started acting like democrats while Bush was in office.




Blech... Ayn Rand was a former screenwriter who convinced a lot of people
who were foolish to take a badly written novels and try and make them into
an economic reality.
