I remember an essay in Philosophy who needs it, talking about the American sense of life as opposed to the European one, where she states that the american sense of life (mainly self-reliance) was vulnerable because born out of necessity as for the immigrants there was nothing to 'loot' and all to construct. Don't know too much about Canada frankly, but I follow the US news about every day here in Europe. It seems to me that, even if Atlas is still a bestseller today, things are coming pretty close to what Atlas shows, in the US of today. Government to me seems to have made it pretty bad looking at the mortgage crisis, real estate tumbling down, car industry going down, inflation and more. How do you see this? Is it me seeing things too apocalyptic or have they really pushed the limits more than in past decades? Shall I start learning chinese? I suspect you must know about all works Ayn Rand wrote.
