Who is John Galt?
âThe American people may oppose the nationâs present course, but by themselves the people cannot change it. They may oppose the taxes and the bureaucrats, but these are merely consequences, which cannot be significantly cut back so long as their source is untouched. The people may curse âbig governmentâ in general â but to no avail if the pressure groups among them, following the logic of a mixed economy, continue to be fruitful and to multiply. The people may âswing to the right,â but it is futile, if the leaders of the right are swinging to their own⦠brand of statism. The country may throw the rascals out, but it means nothing if the next administration is made of neo-rascals from the other partyâ¦â
