Where is John Galt?

Now would be a good time for someone, not unlike DJT, to play the role of John Galt. Someone to collect the greatest minds of this generation and move away from this insanity, to an island or somewhere to build their own society. Everything we enjoy was created by very few people. What would happen if they said, "Screw this, we are leaving?"

If you have never watched or read Atlas Shrugged (1957), you should. It is an interesting idea.

I was told I would hate this story, but I loved it. I think about it all the time. Galt would be a visionary, charismatic and brilliant engineer.

Not me, maybe Elon Musk. Maybe Mars.

I read it many years ago and just recently listened to it on audiobook. I really wish she would have cut out her weird sex scenes and she was Way too wordy at times. An entire page for what should have been two sentences. But over all I like Atlas.

But no seriously. You are John Galt. I am John Galt. If you oppose the looters and leaches and jewey communism You are John Galt.
