Damn the Corporate States of America!

       What was SHE thinking in Atlas Shrugged? How could ANYONE swallow her garbage?
       Thanks Ayn Rand, for giving license to people's worst instincts! Damn the Corporate States of America.
       The role of GOVERNMENT must be as firewall between people & thieving/unethical corps, not as lapdog doing corporate bidding, or we get ENRON, MURDOCH, BAIN CAPITAL, CITIZENS UNITED.
       That's what my new novel, Atlas Drugged: Ayn Rand Be Damned, is ALL about--the nightmare of a world-gone-wild, through unbridled greed that tea party/GOP/Rmoney praise as the American Dream, as bad as it gets, worse than you ever imagined.
       You may order Atlas Drugged: Ayn Rand Be Damned from Amazon.com, http://www.amazon.com/Atlas-Drugged-Ayn-Rand-Damned/dp/1555717098/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1339688257&sr=8-1, BarnesandNoble.com, or directly from the publisher http://www.hellgatepress.com/

Excerpt from the novel Atlas Drugged: Ayn Rand Be Damned! by Stephen L. Goldstein

From Chapter 1:
         As a “standby” test-pattern counts down from ten to one, simultaneously
on three giant TV screens in the pavilion, Rooky announces,
“And now, live from the Oval Office of the White House in
Washington D.C., the President of the Corporate States of America,
the Honorable Hamilton ‘Ham’ Cooper.”
          “My fellow profit-seekers, it is my greatest pleasure to speak to
you personally every year at New Atlantis, and especially this year on
the 67th anniversary of the Galtian Restoration. Like every year, it is
important to remember former times, not only with nostalgia, but
with a renewed dedication to the seriousness of our mission. Three
score and seven years ago, John Galt brought forth on this continent
a market-driven nation, conceived in rationality and dedicated to the
proposition that people and profit are never created equal.”
To everyone’s shock, it sounds as though a voice has spoken over
the president saying, “bullshit.” But it happens so quickly no one can
be sure. And the president appears to be unaware of it and doesn’t
miss a beat.
          “Now, we are engaged in a great competitive war, testing whether
our market or any markets so conceived and so financed, can remain
totally free. We are met on a great staging-ground of that war. And
we have come to rededicate ourselves and New Atlantis, so that our
markets, under Mammon, shall have increased infusions of capital—
and that free markets of free-wheeling corporations, by free-wheeling
corporations, and for free-wheeling corporations shall not perish
from the earth.”
