Hey, Hive account@taskmaster4450.
We can only hope that the Great Rejection can be fully realized before the Great Reset takes place. They've been working on versions of this for decades, while the way out of it has not been so clear for the rest of us until now, and even still, we're trying to lead the masses, which move at the rate of molasses. :)

re: Atlas Shrugged

While there were certainly some industrialists that received the invitation to head off to Galt's Gulch, the way I remember the story is, many more did not. Instead, they went along (whether they were truly happy about it or not), with the government interference and overreach, because they thought they could benefit from it. The main protagonist finds herself in a battle with her own brother over their railroad company and its direction, as does the steel inventor Rearden with his wife and other members of the family.

So, I think quite a bit of what she saw happening has occurred in that regard. I agree, however, that we do seem to missing those who would create Galt's Gulch. As the novel often asked, and we seem to be lacking, Who is John Galt?
