Barnhart has my admiration. She’s telling it like it is.

Who is John Galt?

Post date is today on The Blaze. IMO, it will continue to be news for many, in the days yet ahead as this new REALITY begins to settle in.

Sounds terrible. She makes it sound like they have ended the free market.

Don’t know about the “free” market, but the “honest/non-manipulated” market has been gone for at least three years now.

Glad to see this making the rounds. First it was on Barnhard’s website, then it was on ZeroHedge last night, and now on the Blaze.

I posted it on a financial forum I belong to, some of whose members got their money caught in Corzines snare and now can’t get it out. They were impressed.

In fact, I had some funds in MF Global for a while, trading gold futures, but fortunately took it back out a while ago.

John Galt is the main character in Ayn Rand’s novel “Atlas Shrugged” (or was it “Fountainhead”)

He is a business owner who packs it all in and stops working after all the excessive taxes and regulation, and being made out to be the bad guy after he employed many.

So he says the heck with it all and shuts down

(I hope I characterized it well enough- its been 20 years since I read it)

This is not far from the truth- It is as if your entire house suddenly had its foundation of bedrock turned to sand.

If Corzinne and Co are not jailed for this then Obama has killed this business.

Oh way more than that. There has always been manipulation.

Actually destroying the foundation of the free market itself is something new.

When Obama screwed the GM bondholders, he drove a nail into
the rule of law. Contracts are now meaningless and it just
brings us closer and faster to the brink that we’re all
teetering on....have a nice day.

No doubt Corzine is a despicable crook. I’m pretty sure that Barnhardt is the crazy woman with the weird ideas about Bin Laden though.

Why didn’t that case end up at the Supreme Court?
