When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you - When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - You may know that your society is doomed.

It was a favorite book of my father and family....
Found Ayn Rand through some bumper sticker. Many college age friends in the town had seen the sticker & we ended up reading some books.
Best local enlightenment trick in the early 2000s near me. Made it easier to find others who would question things. Should have found out who owned the cars & met up. Maybe they are on this board.
Yes i had a locker at work with John Galt on it years ago,no one ever caught the reference.
Yes, everyone in my family read it too, all 6 of us
No wonder you turned out so well!
