    Reading Atlas Shrugged is more like a hazing ritual conservatives inflict on each other.

        It’s an intelligence test. Either smart enough to smell the bullshit, or you need to be tutored on critical thinking.

      You mean the ones that can read anything longer than a National Enquirer piece. There must be dozens of them!

      I dunno, when I was in high school there were a number of Ayn Rand essay contests with prize money.

      I won’t say they’re good books but I did make good money from reading them.
