“Finally, Atlas Shrugged resonates with many Americans because they recognize that our current crisis is not just about bailouts and budget deficits. It’s also about a more fundamental issue — the proper scope of government.”

Right on the mark! Excellent article. I wonder though if it indeed too late. There seems to be a majority in this country now that is willing to trade their freedom for a little security and the words “life, liberty and happiness” mean nothing to them.
