Atlas Shrugged was fun to read and for most teenagers will do no harm. But for some, it has become a religion. I don't think even her pal Alan Greenspan buys into it. Life is a little more complex than Ayn Rand can depict in a novel.

YES. But even the idiot oil companies are asking to have their throats cut. One ad showing people saying importantly, "we should be planning to replace our dependency on oil."

Everybody loves to say that. They think it makes them sound like sages.

And the whole approach is idiotic.
