#Bang Bang
In something like Atlas Shrugged, we see a complete contempt for democracy
as portrayed by the caricatures of the legislature, social conscience, and
beaurocracy. While her criticism was amusing and all too accurate, she
used it as a foil for the honest, hard-working entrepreneur who was the
victim of society (the voters and their rep.s) trying to better itself.
Somehow the images of industry tycoons in collusion with their regulators
to keep out competition and innovation was drawn to blame only the
regulators corruption and their very existence, rather than some greed and
will to control on the part of the businessmen. If one looks at toxic
waste in eastern europe, one sees the failure of allowing the waste
creator to be its own regulator (the state in this case), NOT the result
of communism destroying the world.
