JOHN GALT'S OATH
The world will change when you are ready to pronounce this oath:
I swear by my life and my love of it
that I will never live for the sake of another man,
nor ask another man to live for the sake of mine.

"I Am John Galt: Today's Heroic Innovators Building The World and The Villainous Parasites Destroying It" [2011] by Donald Luskin & Andrew Greta This book is coded here not because of agreement, but because it exists. The book contains profiles & exclusive interviews that are quite biased, but some of the authors's choices are interesting. Their Good Guy examples include banker John A. Allison IV, Nobel-winning economist Milton Friedman, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and high-tech CEO T.J. Rodgers; their Bad Guy examples include Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank, Nobel-winning economist Paul Krugman, and disgraced mortgage lender Angelo Mozilo; while Alan Greenspan, former Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank, receives a mixed review. Since the authors do not cite the fascist Republican Party and the Wall Street bankers for their anti-Randian looting of America, I cannot recommend the book. Kindle Edition from Wiley & Sons [5/2011] for $15.19 Wiley & Sons 9x6 pb [5/2011] for $23.47 Wiley & Sons 9x6¼ hardcover [5/2011] out of print/many used
