My progression to “Go John Galt” has been successful. I have managed to decrease my economic footprint on this world by over 35%. Though I am driven naturally to produce, solve, design my new goal of decreasing my lootable income has focused my efforts to conserving by abilities. I have had to lay off good people and change business strategy, but I have decreased my “aide” to government by $45,000 in 2009. Protesting never felt so good. To quote Legends of the Fall “Screw 'um”

[...] The most productive people began to withdrew into their cocoon not because the economy was in a serious recession — at least as normal people define it (second quarter 2008’s annualized growth was +1.5%). What happened is that enough of them to matter started “going Galt.” [...]

You said it all. You expressed what I see as the problem, US, WE THE PEOPLE, are the problem. I am in the middle of my 80th decade. I didn't take any real interest in Washington DC, the candidates, the economy, etc. until the Clinton years. In the past three years I discovered Catherine Austin Fitts web page where I've learned more about how the government and the financial world really operates. So, yes, I say I have allowed the current mess to evolve over my lifetime. I admire Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich because they seem to be two truly honest Congressmen. And I'm listening to the “Atlas Shrugged” audio book. I like the characters and I like the story. And I enjoy the comments that point out how creativity is being punished. I thought that with all the unemployment people would “come to themselves” and get in touch with their creative spirit. And speaking of spirit, I feel there is a Spiritual Awakening evolving underneath all the stuff that is getting the media attention.

The late Dr. Adrian Rogers (1931-2005) offered the following observation several years ago and it bears poignant significance today: You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the rich out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply the wealth by dividing it.”

[...] When going through issues on the far right it’s always interesting how those with a religious agenda are almost always intertwined with the free-market corporatists. It always seemed weird when members of the so-called Christian Coalition – that means you Ralph Reed – would be on cable TV ranting about tax cuts for the rich. Which begs the question, would Jesus have gone Galt? [...]

On July 30th, Conservatives are “Going Galt”. On that date, we are asking Conservatives all across the nation to “Call in Conservative”. On July 30th, Conservatives will not work, we will not buy. Instead, we will spend time with our families and friends. We will show President Obama and Congress who REALLY drives this economy.
