Titz Towers, North Notts


"He discovered salt "

And made vinegar malt,

but above all,

his downfall

was shagging a guy named Walt.

You don't get a lot of Ayn Rand around here!

Ayn Rand(om) thought he might be the owner of the toy making company.

I've never read the book so I don't really know who John Galt is except that the question is asked.

Prior to being a grown up what read a lot, my entire knowledge of Ayn Rand came from Rush lyrics!

It's a book that I read in my late teens. And was mightily impressed. Then I re-read it in my early 40s, and was appalled.

But the Galt character is an intriguing one. Worth a read anyway.

She has some strange philosophies does Ms. Rand, almost right-wing Marxism...very odd bedfellows!

She sure did. And it's still mighty popular at some US universities.

When I first read her essay on Objectivism I was bowled over.

Second time... erm. First time in my life I felt I had progressed

in a Very Good Way.

I thought objectivism was the way we were headed. Self-interest and self-promotion instead of all that soppy altruism.

No, we are going through objectifying first.

Heading back towards old fashioned Marxism is where we're heading! And not in a good way.

If we're moving from capitalism to communism Marx would say that's forwards, not backwards.

You don't need to read Atlas Shrugged anymore... You can just read the news.
