    Atlas Shrugged?

    so the thread of revolution got me thinking about the book Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand. i was wondering how many others have read it, and what they thought about it?

    i'll try to find the article my dad sent me that basically says the book is becoming more and more relevant to our current situation.

    for anyone who has heard of it, but hasn't read it, i strongly suggest it. and to anyone who has never heard of it and has some time to kill (its 1000 pages) i suggest it as well
