I was afraid of this when I first read it, and now more and more it looks like Atlas Shrugged wasn't fiction, just an eerily prescient tale of where America was headed.
I'm nowhere near as optimistic as Steve Moore in the video. American people, and all people for that matter, typically make good economic decisions when it comes to their individual choices. But they are disturbingly eager to buy into big government power grabs. When money gets poured in the trough, people swarm to it without much long-term thinking. I'm afraid that the swarming has only just begun.
Take a look at Rothbards "America's Great Depression" available at Mises.org to really appreciate whats ahead.
