I finished Atlas Shrugged (book on CD) less than 24 hours ago. I couldn’t not read this book after hearing it recommended in so many conservative circles. Though pedantic at times, this book applies to EVERYTHING in Obama’s domestic policy. Let me walk you through this how this applies to Obamacare.
Obama is pushing nationalized health care, which will be underfunded by smacking an income tax on the rich (provided we still have enough rich to tax). This plan is a literally a death sentence to anyone with a illness that costs a lot of money. Obama himself has stated that Cancer care = hospice care.
Obama just appointed a science czar who is an advocate of forced abortions, sterilization for saving our natural resources.
In Atlas Shrugged, the government appointed scientist (Dr Floyd Ferris) was also an advocate of killing 1 in 3 people over 65 and under 10 in order to better ration food, medicine and energy. This became necessary when the government had driven the rich out of existence through a continued and sustained war on wealth.
Though Atlas Shrugged intentionally takes an absurd extreme to the growth of government and the war on wealth, the only thing I found absurd about the story is how striking the parallels are between the lines of thinking of Rand's characters and what Obama is preaching.
