re: #101 Lidane
It’s the Ayn Rand influence. She regarded “collectivists” (i.e., everyone who thought she was batshit insane) as parasites leeching on the poor, maligned capitalists like John Galt.
I never read “Atlas Shrugged” so what happened when John Galt and the other billionaires went off the grid? Did they have to chop their own wood and haul their own water? Did they cook their own food? Did they scrub their own toilets?
