My Hero - John Galt

I recently read "Atlas Shrugged" and felt as though Ayn Rand was here, right now, writing about what is happening in our country. Once I got to the part in the book where the government wanted to start regulating what people ate, I was blown away. I thought, "Wow, these people never change the game plan!" It's the same recycled nonsense over and over again. Amazing.

These socialists keep trying to sell people the same garbage and don't care that they keep getting the same outcome - no one wants what they have to sell!

With this "health care reform" we will have to deal with, I have begun to wonder what would happen if doctors just gave up their practices? What if they walked away, like John Galt did? What if doctors refused to negotiate with a government who only wanted to take their knowledge, experience and expertise with an offer of nothing in return?

Who would then be at whose mercy? And who, among us, would be brave enough to do it?
