His central message is that the power of dictatorships comes from the willing obedience of the people they govern - and that if the people can develop techniques of withholding their consent, a regime will crumble.

In an old townhouse in East Boston an elderly stooped man is tending rare orchids in his shabby office. His Labrador Sally lies on the floor between stacks of academic papers watching him as he shuffles past.

Ayn Rand was there first. It's called going Galt. I've done it. With the passage of RomneyCare I shut my business down. I buy as little as possible in MA and am now about to relocate to TX.
