 Reading it for the first time right now, about half way through. I’m hooked. 
 What is it you're reading brother? 
 Atlas Shrugged 
 I have read/listened to it more than 20 times. It hooks me every time & only seems to get better.

But thankfully there are lots of amazingly talented people just trying to build things & make the world a better place too. It would be nice if more of the latter would stop obeying & financially serving the former.

Thank God for #Bitcoin  
 Atlas Shrugged is a grown-ups Harry Potter.
Mid-20’th Century infantilism philosophy.
Worth reading when you’re in your 20’s, but if you’re reading Ayn Rand in your 40’s you’ve missed a ton of learning.
