Reply #11: The nascent John Galts also think they're going to be in the top tax bracket any minute now

If John Galt really existed and he did what he did in that book, his company's owners would exploit his invention while denouncing Galt in public.

I don't know how many of you suffered through that movie (there's an online review of it somewhere that has a comment following, "everyone who attended the movie liked it." I am certain they did, since the only people who are going to that thing are leftists who are out of syrup of ipecac, and teabaggers) but late in the movie there's a bridge they made from Rearden Metal. The bridge is a mile long with no center supports. This is a metaphor for Teabag Nation: the second that bridge is tested, it will collapse.
