I'd heard so much about Rand and the "genius" of Atlas Shrugged so I sat down read it. The only thing 3 dimensional about the book was when it was closed and sitting on my table.

I'm glad to have read it just so I understand how shallow the arguments are of those that raise it as an ideal to aspire to.
