Great Book, albeit long, great philosophy. But I have one question, why did they leave Eddie out in the wilderness?

Reason is Two edged sword. Only a fully integrated Man who can Understand&Choose the Right as his morale code can maintain it healthy. Any man less than him,with less courage/less understanding ability/ low ability to bear the pain,’ll become either like Jim Taggart: forms his own COMFORTZONE believing it’s everything (OR) Fred Kinnan: Understands it completely but CHOOSES the Wrong, Consciously!

I was so fascinated by part one of the movie that I purchased the novel and read it in less than two weeks (I work full time). It was great food for thought and opened my mind to some wonderful ideas. It was way ahead of its time as events that are happening more than fifty years later unfold are very much what was described in the novel.

Atlas Shrugged didnt change my philosophy and me as a person. I always had the basic fundamental principles but AS and Objectivism defined my philosophy and has been a rational defender of my principles. When I read Atlas Shrugged I was amazed for many reasons. The most important one is that I could identify myself with the many charactars struggling for hapiness and the achievment of life.

I think after I read this, i had to question my party affiliation. I always considered myself to be conservative. In the current realm of politics and a do nothing congress except for more regulations, i have shifted my political ideology. The liberatarian party seems like a better fit for my political beliefs. I can’t stand watching the mainstream media anymore. The prophecy coming true.

This book/movie is on target! Ayn rand knew what she was writing about! Looking forward to receiving the DVD. Saw the movie in theatre, and can hardly wait for part 2.

I just recently completed Atlas Shrugged and even though it was written over 50 years, the concepts adressed hold true today. Looking at the Occupy Wall Street Movement, and the many freeloaders out there looking for a handout and to redistribute the wealth reminds me of how the Company in the book paid employees based on need rather than on performance. The Comapny obviously collapsed.

It has made me think about the power that a government-controlled organisation can have over the people that depend on it and how, when that organisation starts to fall apart, there really isn’t much that anyone can do. Except wait for some great intellect to stand up, take over the reigns and rebuild what is fractured and failing.

It is Greek Myth,” not Greek Mythology, which means the study of Greek Myth. The book is my bible, and has been for forty years. I introduce it to as many as I can.
