Doc, excuse me, but Ayn Rand was RIGHT about human nature, in particular the way totalitarians want to control people. The problem is that she wrote Atlas Shrugged as a warning of how we shouldn't let the government micro-manage every little thing ordinary folks do, except that the government (particularly Obama and his evil crew) think it's a "how-to" manual.
With Obama calling his pet project the "Affordable Care Act" it's just like the names the government came up with for laws right out of Atlas Shrugged. You really should read Atlas Shrugged, you might even learn something. My only problem with her book is that it should only be 33 to 50% of its final length. It does get too wordy at times, but it is quite entertaining.
One thing a lot of lefties miss is that the USA has done a pretty good job of cleaning up pollution; unfortunately, the rest of the world doesn't care. That's why a lot of manufacturing jobs have gone to places like China, because they can undercut the USA when it comes to making products cheaply because they don't care if they pollute their air and water. And the same lefties who really complain about "evil" factories polluting will go right out and buy all of the products made by said polluting countries. Have an iPhone, anyone?
Btw, Ted Nugent has planted more trees than any number of "progressives" you could name. It's always ironic because most of the lefties I meet always personally pollute the most. They buy products with excessive packaging, and then throw it all out instead of recycling, etc. Hypocrites!
Rusty PS you have a great web site except when you bring some stupid lefty politics into it!
