To get back to this original question... There was a Scottish JG, a novelist, who died in the early 1800s so he's kind of not an option. Then we have THE JG who was, presumably, fictional and espoused societal "organization", so to speak, that's the antithesis of the greedy beast system of enslaving humanity. Atlas Shrugged came out about six years before the JFK assassination... So did TPTB suspect he was based on an actual person who might have been involved in the incident? Was there an operative at the time who was using JG as a code name? Or was there an actual person named JG involved at the time? I don't have any knowledge of history at that time to know one way or another. Was CJEW paranoid, thinking Rand was describing a real person in her novel and that this person could have had some influence in political matters?
