Reply #14: It was a fatally flawed work to begin with

[guitar man]

Ayn had it all wrong about who "Atlas" really is. It's not the high and mighty occupants of the ivory towers who are the "Atlasses" of the world, but us "lowly" up-at-5am and off to hit a time clock somewhere for a day's pay who have made everything that we know possible for quite a long time now. We are the ones who have carried the world on our backs and made their grand dreams possible with our blood sweat and tears.

But to hear the adherents of Rand's fatally flawed fallacy tell it, yeah, we're just "hangers on" in a world where the grand imaginations of that powdered and pampered class inflates and conflates their contribution and worth to society.

To the trashcan and down the toilet with all this nonsense and folly I say! :grr:
