An anarcho-syndicalist commune it is. Since it was my idea, I get most of the booze. You guys can chop firewood and hunt for food and stuff. Of course, there may some disagreement about this division of labor, but since we’re all captains of industry and leaders of the creative entrepreneurial class, we’ll work it out, I’m sure. Somebody bring good cigars, too. We’ll want them when we’re laughing our asses off at the poor fools still struggling in the coils of collectivism.</p> cowalker, heydave, thingwarbler–Join me, comrades!

Yeeeah. If these “Randroids” didn’t comprise the core Wal-Mart demographic, the Chinese would have called every loan they made to this country a year ago.

All I can say is thank you Byron, Lyndse, and Eric for leading the way. I’m pretty sure that your going John Galt is going to bring the government to its knees within seventy-two hours.

However, I’m confused about what “going John Galt” really means. Is it simply being a mindless wanker more often or do I have to be a mindless wanker all day, every day?

What I’d like to ask Dr. Helen is did she drop out of high school in her freshman or sophomore year and did she take acting lessons to allow her to sound like a complete moron or is she, in fact, a complete moron?
