Why are people reading Atlas Shrugged?

I talk to Gabe Wisdom about the incredible fact that Ayn Rand’s novel Atlas Shrugged has sold 1.5 million copies since Obama became President. A fun discussion. (My appearance starts a few minutes in and lasts for about half an hour.)

    I read Atlas Shrugged for the first time two years ago at the age of 51 due to the references made on blogs. Always amazed by how some among us are able to see the future with such clarity.
