Atlas Shrugged - Part II

According to the Ayn Rand Center for Individual Rights sales of Ms. Rand's 1957 novel Atlas Shrugged set record sales in 2008. And thus far in 2009 sales have tripled over 2008 numbers for the same period. It seems people are finding Ms. Rand's vision of a socialist America interesting, if not a little frightening. Frighteningly real.

I recently placed my "Who is John Galt" sticker on my car window. I've received a few inquiries, but for the most part it's just my way of letting others of like mind know I am one of them.

What to do, what to do?

Tea party?

Go Galt?

I can't really afford to drop out. Or at least I haven't thought of a way just yet. So that leaves organizing or participating in a tea party. Yes, I think that is what I will do.
