I love that the two central conceits of Atlas Shrugged- that railroads would thrive without government intervention (good luck laying track without eminent domain) and that the great individualists of the world will thrive with a device that creates energy from static electricity in the air- are utterly ludicrous and her fans don’t even consider that.
Yeah, I was amazed by Atlas Shrugged too…when I was 14.
