Atlas Shrugged
by Ayn Rand
by Ayn Rand
This book, as much as I detest it, is actually rather useful. Those who have read it tend to be those whom I most especially desire to avoid. Because those who have read it are invariably proud of the fact--ostentatiously so--it is even easier for me to keep my life free and clear of delusional egomaniacs. Thank you Ayn Rand.

Sorry you feel that way. I've lived my life not looting, working hard and living a life (I hope) of integrity. No one in my life has ever called me a delusional egomaniac. I'm not so sure you read the book.
There are many people like Seth who would rather cling to their illusions than face reality. It's so much easier for them.

This review, plus four stars for a Paul Krugman book, tells me that Ayn Rand was a bit over your head.
